| Notes | Tasting Note This Marlborough Pinot Gris offers delicate aromas of pear and quince flowing onto delicious honey and citrus on the palate. This elegant wine offers a long, textured finish. Yeasts used are selected to express classic Pinot Gris aromatics and contribute a mealy complexity, which is typical of a Pinot Gris wine. A small amount of skin contact helps to extract flavour and build weight of the wine. Fermentation is stopped when balance is achieved whilst retaining some natural sweetness to balance the classic Marlborough acidity. A mixture of warm ferment temperatures are used to add texture to the wine. Cooler ferments help to retain bright fruit and purity. Following a short time on lees the wine was racked to blend, fined and stabilised before filtration to prepare for bottling. |
