Situated in the heart of New Zealand’s most revered wine-growing region, the Oyster Bay Hawkes Bay Pinot Grigio/Gris is a testament to the harmonious balance between the land and the vine. Each bottle encapsulates the enchanting beauty of elevated terraced vineyards, yielding a wine that captures the delicate aromatic flavours of the variety while retaining its natural vibrancy and purity.
Warmed by sunlight-filled days and cooled by the tranquil nights, the grapes enjoy an extended growing season. They ripen slowly, their flavours intensifying over time, until they're imbued with the varietal's characteristic aromatic qualities. The result is a Pinot Grigio/Gris marked by perfumed notes and soft hints of spice, unveiling a gentle yet captivating style, finished with a fresh citrus vitality. This wine is a distinctive cool-climate expression of the varietal - an elegant, crisp, and altogether invigorating delight.
