WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Situated in New Zealand’s most established wine growing region, the beguiling beauty of Oyster Bay's elevated terraced vineyards in the Hawke’s Bay creates the enchanting Oyster Bay New Zealand Pinot Gris that captures the delicate aromatic flavors of the white wine variety while retaining its natural vibrancy and purity. Warm days and cool nights create an extended growing season, the fruit ripens slowly developing flavor intensity and hallmark aromatic characteristics. Its perfumed notes and soft hints of spice introduce a soft, yet delicate style of Pinot Gris wine with fresh citrus vitality. Oyster Bay Pinot Gris features delightfully fragrant summer florals, with subtle spice and refreshing citrus that pair perfectly with lightly spiced dishes, seafood, and white meats.
TASTING NOTES:
Nice white pears, green apples, fennel and flint to the nose followed by a fresh-toned, medium-bodied palate with a dry and tangy finish.
