Dark blackcurrant, spice and violet aromatics lead to an elegant mineral infused palate showing vibrancy, depth and poise. It perfectly pairs with venison, beef and creamy sauces.

Winemaking

Hand selected from various specific clones in our single estate vineyard in Gibbston, and hand harvested over six days between 21st April and 1st May 2016.  The fruit was sorted into fourteen very distinct lots and fermented separately in stainless steel open-top fermenters with an average fermentation time of 26 days. 

75% de-stemmed fruit and 25% whole bunch fermentation was done primarily for its contribution to the texture giving roundness, complexity and tannin.  

Indigenous yeast was used to ferment the wines to dryness.  The wines were hand plunged two times a day and spent an average of 25 days on skins to extract tannin, colour and aromatics. 

The wines were then gently drained and pressed 100% to 225L French oak barriques of which 20% were new French oak.  They were then rested and matured for ten months on yeast lees with 100% malolactic fermentation in Spring.

Tasting notes
Citrus and floral aromatics lead to a rich warmly textured wine showing depth and drive with a soft lingering finish.

Growing season
The 2024 season in Gibbston was nice when it needed to be, and naughty when it could get away with it!  The weather was stable, warm and dry when it mattered the most (during budding and flowering).  We kept waiting for a temperature drop to increase the acid to match the higher than usual sugar levels.  Much like some previous vintages, we made the decision to leave the grapes a little longer on the vine to let them experience the cooler autumn nights.  A fantastic decision, we started to pick just before ANZAC Day.  In total, we harvested a mammoth 76 tonne (higher than the normal 50 to 60T).  As well as drinking beautifully, we are seeing some heavily pronounced aromatics on the nose from every 2024 wine so far.  Quality and quantity, what more could we ask for?

Winemaking
All fruit was hand harvested from two vineyards in Central Otago.  The majority was picked from our Gibbston Back Road vineyard on 22^nd April, with some fruit from Cromwell picked on 5^th April.  The two whole bunch ferments were pressed to stainless steel tanks and neutral oak barrels (5%) for fermentation at 12-18 degrees celcius. This allows the aromatics to develop nicely. The final wine was blended and aged on fine lees to give further texture and complexity, before being bottled in November 2024.

Our Pinot Gris is a super versatile wine to pair food with, it’s an excellent option to take to any dinner party!  We love it with fresh seafood, ceviche, chicken salad and it’s a great option with a curry or slightly spicy Mexican – try a roasted cauliflower taco. 

Cheese to choose - again, this is a great pairing wine – we love it with a creamy burrata, gruyere, camembert, double cream brie, even marinated feta or pecorino is outstanding.

Tasting Notes

Vintage Notes
2024 was nice when it needed to be and naughty when it could get away with it.  The weather was stable, warm and dry during budburst and flowering.  

We made the decision to leave the grapes a little long on the vine to let them experience the cool autumn nights.  A fantastic decision it turns out, and we started to pick just before Anzac Day.  

As well as drinking well, we are seeing heavily pronounced aromatics on the nose from every 2024 wine so far.  Quality and quantity - we more could we ask for?
