2008 Maven Pinot Gris
-
Grown in the clay based soils of Marlborough's Omaka Valley and the Wairau Valley the grapes for this Pinot Gris were hand picked once the berries had turned deep bronze in colour and the flavours almost honey like.
A generous, full bodied style of Pinot Gris our 2008 has pear and spiced apple aromas, notes of wild honey and lychee on the palate and a long rich textured finish.
Lees stirring and partial wild fermentation in seasoned French oak barriques have added another dimension to this Pinot Gris' mouth filling palate weight and creamy texture.RRP: $22.95 Alcohol: 13% vol.
