Pinot Gris 2020
Pinot Gris grapes were hand harvested on the 30th of March and the 20th of April 2020 from two Central Otago vineyards.
The fruit was destemmed and crushed before being pressed and the resulting juice was cold settled before racking and inoculation with select yeast in a stainless steel tank. The fermentation was stopped to retain 4.8 g/L residual sugar.
Wine notes
Colour: Pale straw with lemon hues.
Fragrance: Ripe pear, apricot, pineapple, lime zest, vanilla and a hint of honey.
Taste: Fresh and juicy entry of stonefruit, melon and pears with great balance. Nice phenolics on the mid palate creating lovely texture with good minerality and a long citrus finish.
