Quartz Reef Central Otago Pinot Gris 375ml 2022

From the certified biodynamic estate vineyards in Bendigo, Quartz Reef’s 2022 Pinot Gris reflects both its alpine climate and distinctive schist and quartz-rich soils. Hand-harvested fruit is whole bunch pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts in a combination of stainless steel and old oak barrels, followed by extended lees contact for body and texture. Bottled in a convenient 375ml format, this wine offers a perfect taste of Central Otago precision in a glass.

Bouquet

Elegant and lifted, the bouquet shows notes of ripe pear, white peach, and quince, backed by hints of citrus blossom, ginger, and wet stone. A gentle savoury note weaves through the aromatic profile, typical of its wild ferment origins.

Palate

Dry and finely textured, with ripe orchard fruit and spice unfolding across a creamy mid-palate. A mineral thread and bright acidity provide energy and shape, leading to a long, pure finish. A Pinot Gris of restraint, clarity, and quiet sophistication.

Food Pairing

Ideal with grilled chicken and sage, seafood linguine, or a roasted pear and walnut salad. A beautiful match for shared plates or elegant dinners for two.
