Modelled on the heady textural Pinot Gris' of Alsace. The fruit was 100% sourced from the Te Muna Road subregion of Martinborough and fermented in old French barriques to create a wine of depth and richness.
CURRENT VINTAGE: 2024 GRIS Pinot Gris
Grown on the alluvial gravel soils of the Martinborough Terrace. A warmer 2024 growing season has given us a Pinot Gris of texture and weight. This wine was fermented and aged in French barriques to bring complexity, depth, and richness. It was bottled after spending 4 months in barrel, to retain freshness and vibrancy.
An excellent alternative to Chardonnay, that has been inspired by the classic French approach to the variety and suitable as an accompaniment to many dishes.
