Complex aromas of lychee and pear with underlying citrus blossom notes.
100% Pinot Gris
Post fermentation the wine was left on lees for ~3 months to help increase texture. After the maturation period the wine was fined with traditional additives, cold stabilized and bottled.
Long fleshy mouth feel, lychee and nashi pear feature on the palate with subtle lemon blossom, well integrated natural acid with a mineral finish.
The 2016 Pinot Gris was picked at optimum ripeness during the coolest period of the night to help retain the vibrant primary fruit flavours. It was transported directly to the winery post-harvest, crushed and pressed to tank and allowed to cold settle. 48 hours later the juice was cleanly racked and inoculated. The ferment temperature was kept at around 13-14 degrees to help retain the primary fruit aromas while also developing a complex fermentation bouquet and increased palate weight.
