Lake Chalice The Falcon Marlborough Pinot Gris 2023

Lake Chalice The Falcon Marlborough Pinot Gris 2023Indulge in one of those vibrant summer stone fruit pastries in the cabinet. The first bite, surprisingly, isnt sweet. Instead, its simple and clean, a delicate balance of acidity with a cream like texture in the mouth. Its full of fresh cut peaches, oranges, a little spice and with a slight sweetness to finish. You cant help but take another bite just to make sure you got it all. Maybe one more. Do you feel like kissing the baker? Thats what you can

Indulge in one of those vibrant summer stone fruit pastries in the cabinet. The first bite, surprisingly, isn’t sweet. Instead, it’s simple and clean, a delicate balance of acidity with a cream-like texture in the mouth. It’s full of fresh-cut peaches, oranges, a little spice and with a slight sweetness to finish. You can’t help but take another bite just to make sure you got it all. Maybe one more. Do you feel like kissing the baker? That’s what you can expect from this easy-to-drink, Marlborough Pinot Gris. 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.

Harvested entirely from the clay-rich soils of Marlborough’s southern valleys including our flagship Eyrie vineyard in the Waihopai Valley.

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.
