This Marlborough Pinot Gris comes from one vineyard located just outside the township of Ward in the Awatere Valley that’s owned and managed by Sara Davies and Andrew Craig.

The fruit was machine-picked to bin so maceration was minimised, and a portion of this juice was barrel-fermented in older French oak to give greater weight, though ensuring that the wood is not evident on the nose. The balance of the wine was fermented cool to retain the fruit characters that come from this special vineyard.

The final blend this year was made solely from free-run juice, giving a more elegant and subtle wine, especially with Pinot Gris that has quite ‘grey’ coloured skins and is inherently quite tannic. Slightly lower sugars also mean the wine is perhaps more elegant and refined but it still shows the lovely texture.

Characters from this special vineyard in Ward give this Pinot Gris complexity and depth. The palate has an elegant structure with a creamy, textural midpalate and a long finish.
