2024 'The Nest' Pinot Gris, Lake Chalice
Marlborough, New Zealand
Aromas of freshly cut pear mingle with citrus undertones on this softly textured Pinot Gris. The palate is beautifully balanced with layers of poached pear, honeycomb, and a touch of sweet pastry on the finish.
The fruit for this wine is predominantly sourced from selected vineyards in the floodplains of Marlborough’s lower Wairau Valley. The eastern flood plain soils are nutrient-rich silty loam, renowned for delivering fruit-forward notes. Once the grapes were picked, they were immediately pressed to minimise skin contact, followed by cool fermentation with selected yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, in order to capture the desired level of fruity aromatics. A small proportion was aged in seasoned French oak, adding complexity to the wine.
