Duck Point Gisborne Pinot Gris 2022

Duck Point Pinot Gris 2022 hails from the sun-soaked vineyards of Gisborne—New Zealand’s Chardonnay and aromatic white capital. Warm days and cool nights bring generous ripeness and bright acidity. Fermented in stainless steel to retain fresh fruit character, this Pinot Gris is crafted in a clean, fruit-forward style with just a touch of residual sweetness for balance and body.

Bouquet

Aromatically lifted, the nose offers ripe pear, white nectarine, and honeysuckle, layered with soft floral notes and a hint of baking spice. A gentle waft of citrus blossom adds freshness and charm.

Palate

Juicy and easy-going, the palate reveals poached pear, apple compote, and subtle citrus peel, balanced by a smooth texture and a whisper of ginger spice. The finish is soft, refreshing, and delicately off-dry, with a rounded feel that makes it an ideal crowd-pleaser.

Food Pairing

A natural fit with Thai green curry, grilled pork chops, or creamy pasta with mushrooms and herbs. Also delightful with antipasti or as a chilled afternoon sipper on a sunny day.

Cellaring

Made for immediate enjoyment, though can be cellared for up to 2 years to mellow and round out the fruit and spice components. Best enjoyed young while the aromatics are at their peak.
