Palliser Estate, tasting note (fusws.api.aspedia.io – linket fra palliser.co.nz, hentet 2026-10-19): 2022 Palliser Estate Pinot Gris – druer: Pinot Gris; alkohol 13%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Palliser Estate Pinot Gris 2022 A rich, concentrated off-dry Pinot Gris with a fresh mouthfeel. Pale lemon with a pinkish hue. Dry in style with a distinctly floral and lifted palate, the integration of apple and pear fruit flavours with the textural elements is a highlight. A sophisticated and dry style of Pinot Gris, with each sip revealing further complexity. 62% of the fruit from the Pencarrow Vineyard, 5% from our organic vineyard Om Santi and the balance from the Palliser Vineyard. The fruit is harvested and has 3 hours skin contact to aid in extraction of aromas and flavour. The grapes are gently pressed, tank fermented to 7g/litre of residual sugar adding weight. A portion is fermented in old french oak barrels adding complexity. The two portions are then blended and aged for a further 2 months on lees gaining texture before bottling An harmonious nose showing delicate floral notes of orchid and frangipani over top of nashi pear and red apple. Perfect with Vietnamese or Thai cuisine, this will be at its best now and through 2027. WINEMAKER Guy McMaster Picking Date: March 2022 Alcohol: 13.0% Bottled: July 2022 Vegan friendly
