Pinot Gris

Wine Description:

An increasingly popular grape variety in New Zealand, Pinot Gris thrives in the cooler influenced Nelson, gathering sweet pear and frangipane notes, alongside a wonderfully balanced texture of peach and apricot fruit on the palate. From a single vineyard, grapes are hand-picked when at full ripeness then gently pressed and cold settled in stainless steel tanks.
