Lawson's Dry Hills
Pinot Gris 2013

Pear, stonefruit and citrus characters feature strongly and the combination of low yields, partial barrel fermentation and lees stirring has produced a wine with weight, complexity and length.

Cellaring

Ideal wine to drink whilst young, however it will become more complex and interesting with time

Food Match

Enjoy in moderation with white fish, shell fish or crab meat, Cheeses or salami.

Avenues International Aromatics Wine Competition - N.Z. 2013 - GOLD MEDAL

Wine Orbit - FIVE STARS - 93 points

This is silky smooth and full of delicious flavours. The elegantly perfumed bouquet shows stone fruit, floral notes and pear, with a hint of spice. It's concentrated and succulent on the palate with excellent mid palate weight and fruit intensity, leading to a lingering refreshing finish. The wine is immediately appealing, yet this should develop further to show greater complexity and richness.
