Bald Hills Kiramehi Single Vineyard Pinot Gris 2018, Bannockburn, Central Otago

Immediately varietal, fresh, fruity and just a little bit floral. Aromas of green pear and pear skin, red apple and a fine layer of spice and lees with a quiet and light lager beer note. On the palate - fresh, dry, fruity and classic with flavours of white fleshed fruits and pear skin, white pepper, crushed rock mineral and a long leesy fruity finish. Balanced and well made, ready to enjoy from today and through 2022.

I think this wine is best served at ambient temperature, but cool. Do pour fridge cooled, but don’t keep chilled and use a large glass to allow the wine to warm to ambient. If it’s Summer then you will need to keep it cooled somewhat.
