Villa Maria Private Bin East Coast Pinot Grigio 2022

This Pinot Gris has fresh and intense aromatics of pear, red apple and honeysuckle, leading to a rich and textured mouthfeel with a delicious off-dry finish.

This wine consists of a variety of parcels blended from different vineyard sites across several key regions. The warmer Gisborne and Hawkes Bay regions provide ripe fruit with soft acidity and the South Island provides freshness and aromatics.

The fruit is gently pressed and the juice settled and clarified prior to cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks with selected aromatic yeast strains.

A brief period of yeast lees ageing follows prior to blending and preparation for bottling.
