This wine was grown on our Matapiro Vineyard in the cooler Crownthorpe Terraces sub region of Hawke’s Bay. At approximately 200 m above sea level, this is our most elevated and inland vineyard. Being further from the moderating influence of the sea breeze, there is greater diurnal temperature fluctuation, with warm days and cool nights, perfect for retaining aromatics and acidity.

TASTING NOTES
AROMAS
On the nose, the wine is reminiscent of ripe autumn orchard fruit, lifted by notes of honeysuckle with a savoury complexity and subtle minerality providing depth and interest.
BODY
A dry, fresh and mineral driven Pinot Gris with exceptional length and finesse on the palate.
CELLARING
While beautiful drinking now, this wine should reward
cellaring for at least four years from vintage date.
