A white wine from Marlborough – winner of the Trophy for Champion Pinot Gris at NZIWS this year. The bouquet shows tremendous varietal typicity – there\u2019s no mistaking that this is (very good) Pinot Gris, with pear, white peach, lemon curd, ginger, baking spices and jasmine floral notes. Dry to taste, with crisp, zesty acidity that carries the voluptuous fruit flavours well. A touch of warmth shows in a vanilla-flecked toastiness mid-palate, but there is also a layer of savoury flavour, with a whisper of fennel and tarragon.The texture is silky and enveloping, slowing the wine down and lingering into a finish with good length. 93pts<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
