2024 Estate Pinot Gris
2024 Estate Pinot Gris
This wine has a beautiful fine mineral textural drive across the palate with a savoury edge and a pop of sweet perfumed frangipani and spice that lingers and provides balance and a generous mouthfeel.

Other Notes
After a wet spring, the 2024 season gave ample sunlight and ideal ripening conditions across all varieties. Phenological ripeness was uniform and flavours although delayed, were abundant in great concentrations.

Winemaker Notes
Handpicked fruit was chilled overnight before being split into parcels. The first, gently whole bunch pressed directly to barrel and the second, fermented on skins after a 3 day cold soak.
Both parcels showed a uniqueness in the fruit profile and textural elements that complimented each other when blended. This wine was then bottled unfined and filtered.
