Description
Region
Marlborough.
Style
Off-dry.
Vineyard
Harvested entirely from the clay-rich soils of Marlborough’s southern valleys including our flagship Eyrie vineyard in the Waihopai Valley.
Winemaker
Chloe Gabrielsen
Vinification
Pressed immediately following harvest to minimise skin contact and retain freshness, then cool-fermented at 14+ degrees to maintain rich aromatics. This Pinot Gris sat on lees for 2-3 months post fermentation to further develop in flavour.
Appearance
Pale lemon.
Bouquet
Pure and delicate aromas of fresh pear with a hint of spice.
Palate
The palate is elegant and opulent with pear, pastry and savoury notes.
Cellaring
Enjoy now and over the next 3 years. If you can wait 5 minutes after buying it before twisting the cap off, you’ve exercised some real restraint.
Vegan
Vegetarian and Vegan Friendly.
Packaging
6 x 750ml bottles, screw cap closure.
