Tasting Notes
| Aroma | Delightfully aromatic with white florals, gala apple, a touch of rose petal and a savoury celery leaf note. |
| Palate | The weighty palate is vibrant with ripe guava and ripe red apple, leading to a smooth and juicy finish. |
| Food Match | A food-friendly style – an ideal companion to chicken and fish dishes, or enjoy with your favourite soft cheese. |
| Viticulture | Ōhau vineyard is perfect for cool climate wine production. Our long growing season and cool nights provide ideal conditions for flavour development. An open canopy with good fruit exposure ensures full ripeness. We had a tricky vintage in 2022 with some cyclonic weather right on veraison and then quite unsettled through the picking period. The pinot gris grapes stood up pretty well to the weather, and while we did have some botrytis, it didn't affect the freshness of the fruit. |
| Winemaking | With pinot gris it’s important to maintain a good balance between acidity, alcohol and residual sugar, and to optimise the aromatic qualities from the vineyard. To do this, we are gentle with the fruit, fermenting the wine slowly to capture the aromatics and leave a residual sugar that adds to – but doesn’t dominate – the wine. Aromatic yeasts accentuate the vineyards natural exuberance whilst also preserving freshness and vitality. Fermented in stainless steel vats, and prepared for bottling in November 2022. |
