91/100 45

An oak-matured style that works very well. The wine is dry with varietal pear and other stone fruit flavours enheanced with nutty oak and yeast lees characters. A complex and very appealing wine in a sophisticated style. Sensitively made Pinot Gris.

Tasted: Oct 2009   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $26 (~USD $22)
