Vintage 2022 was an exciting, classic Marlborough vintage. A warm Spring secured good fruit set throughout the region. Some challenging weather in February was rewarded with clear warm days throughout harvest. The cool crisp nights and warm days in March retained vibrant acidity while allowing flavours to develop fully. A slow and steady ripening resulted in beautifully intense and structured wines. The Pinot Gris produced from this vintage has concentrated fruit flavours, with a vibrant pure palate and an elegant fresh finish.

Select parcels of Pinot Gris were individually harvested and gently pressed. The juice was cold settled for 48 hours then racked to remove solids. The clear juice underwent a long cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks to capture and enhance the fruit flavours of pear, fig and stone fruit. Each parcel was fermented separately using a range of selected yeasts. Following fermentation the wine was blended, stabilised and filtered prior to bottling.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with Asian cuisine, chicken and light pasta dishes.
