The Waipara Springs Pinot Gris 2020 is beautifully ripe and charming and shows apricot, fresh pear, lemon peel and floral aromas on the nose. It’s equally attractive on the palate, offering terrific fruit purity and intensity combined with silky texture and refreshing acidity, making it gorgeously drinkable.
Ageing potential: At its best now through to 2023.
Food pairing: Pairs well with mildly spiced Asian style dishes.

string(352) "Full of honeyed spice and clean zingy freshness, Pinot Gris is capable of producing a broad array of wine styles. From steely dry whites to fully botrytis-affected sweet styles, it is a variety eager to please. Thai food screams for Pinot Gris, especially those from New Zealand where the wines’ deeper, honeyed, citrus flavours seem to flow so well."
