Colour:
Very pale in its youth, but we know from experience that New Zealand Pinot Gris will develop onion skins tints with age.
Nose:
Subtle, yet exotic. The nose shows delicate earthy undertones that typify both the variety and the soils at Hexton. Coupled with this are lovely spice and pear notes.
Palate:
Medium in body, with an exceptional balance between fruit sweetness and acidity. The finish is long, spicy and textural.
