Palliser Estate'The Griffin' Methode Traditionnelle 2021, Martinborough, Wairarapa

This Pinot Noir Chardonnay blend has been resting on lees for three years before dégorgement. The bouquet is excellent, a little exquisite and definitely complex. Aromas of autolysis, baked goods, brioche and ripe stone fruits then citrus and apple. A delicious mousse touches the palate first with a gentle explosion, fine bubble and backbone of acidity. As the wine unfurls across the palate flavours of citrus and white peach, grapefruit pith and flower begin to show. The lees qualities and baked goods ideas continue through the acid line, weight and mousse features. Complex and dry, lengthy and delicious. A lovely wine ready to drink from day of purchase through 2033+. Tasted better on day two. A steal at the price shown below.
