Pinot Gris 2019

Palliser Estate, tasting note (fusws.api.aspedia.io – linket fra palliser.co.nz, hentet 2026-10-19): 2019 Palliser Estate Pinot Gris – druer: Pinot Gris; alkohol 13.5%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Pinot Gris 2019 A rich, concentrated off-dry Pinot Gris with a fresh mouthfeel. Pale lemon with gold flecks and a pink hue. Dry to taste with a kiss of fruit sweetness to ward off austerity, the palate is rounded and spicy, with a creamy texture. A citrus element freshens up the midpalate, finishing with a hint of ginger that positively cries out for some Thai food A 50/50 blend from our organically managed Om Santi vineyard and our East Base vines. A combination of machine harvested and handpicked fruit; the former for skin contact and aroma extraction and the latter for elegance. Cool fermented to 13.5% ABV and 8 grams residual sugar, lees stirring adds weight, complexity and texture. Vegan friendly Rich and detailed on the nose, with notes of baked apple, nutmeg, stonefruit and honeysuckle. A subtle suggestion of nutty, biscuity lees adds another layer of intrigue. Perfect with gently spicy SouthEast Asian cuisine, or great with classic roast pork. At its best the first 6 years from harvest WINEMAKER Guy McMaster Picking Date: April 2019 Alcohol: 13.5% Bottled: October 2019
