Produced by Matt and James Dicey in Bannockburn, Central Otago, this Pinot Gris is crafted in a dry Alsace style. The wine showcases rich and juicy flavours, reflecting the unique terroir of the region.
Bouquet The nose is expressive, offering aromas of white peach, pear, fresh red apple, and sweet quince, with a whisper of lees autolysis enhancing a mineral suggestion of stone.
Palate On the palate, the wine is delicious, warm, textured, and generous, with flavours that reflect the bouquet. It is just dry, with fine fruit and lees textures, core fruit flavours, and a balanced finish.
Food Pairing This Pinot Gris pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Consider enjoying it with spiced Asian cuisine, succulent pork belly dishes, or creamy pasta. Its versatility also makes it a great match for ripe, creamy cheeses.
Cellaring While approachable upon release, this wine has the potential to develop further complexity with short-term cellaring. It is recommended to consume within 1 to 8 years to experience its optimal freshness.
