Judges Comments:

Made from vineyards on the southern banks of the Awatere River, this off-dry Pinot Gris is a beautiful varietal expression with aromas of pear, banana, nectarine, ripe apple, nougat and baking spice. Youthful and well-balanced with a lush and spicy finish.

Pairing Recommendation:

A versatile wine that works well with roast pork, creamy polenta and blue cheese.
