This Central Otago Pinot Gris loves showing you its unique little part of the world. Amisfield’s Pinot Gris grew up in a transformed high country merino station now recognised as a world class winegrowing paddock. Yields are kept low for maximum flavour concentration and the wines are crafted under fully sustainable program. Stephanie Lambert (winemaker) does a great job blending the various parcels of this funky little wine each replicating the vineyard plot they hail from. The end result is a stylish Pinot Gris with complexed characteristics to keep your palate enthused. In the beginning you get greeted with lifted aromas of stonefruit, quince and hints of spiced nuts. Rocking out the palate brings an array flavours starting with vibrant pear and peach quickly followed by white spice and quince. A touch of barrel oak then shows itself with mealy brioche, and creamy nuts supported by the great mainstay of Central Otago wines – a strong mineral backbone of flinty acid.
