Dicey Bannockburn Central Otago Pinot Gris 2022
- Dry style
- Nectarine
- Blossom
- Rich
"Luscious, full-flavoured Pinot Gris with ripe pear, stewed apple and honeysuckle supported by gentle acidity that gives the wine an off-dry finish. Silken-textured wine that is a pleasure to drink" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Dec 2022
"Fragrant, varietal, spiced white fleshed fruits bouquet with a fine leesy and ginger spice quality and mineral quality. Crisp, refreshing and dry on the palate with flavours of pears and apple, plenty of quince with a moment of white nectarine then white spices with a dried herb and mineral complexity. Well made, spritely and delicious. Best drinking from 2023 through 2027" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Dec 2022
Displays aromas of quince, white nectarine and blossom notes. The palate is broad, rich and textural. Drink within 1 -8 years.
Described as a year where average growers shone and good growers excelled, Vintage 2022 will be remembered for being close to the perfect season: a lack of frost and wind, warm and wet at the start with a protracted hot dry spell in the middle and a long cool ripening period. Overall a very warm season, small bunch numbers with big berries the fruit was clean and tasty!
The fruit was hand harvested, brought to the winery on the afternoon of picking, where it was foot stomped. The grapes were left overnight then whole bunch pressed, to horizontal fermenters. It was held cold until the indigenous yeast starter got going then the juice warmed and the wine was fermented on full solids. The wine fermented to dry, was then left on full solids for 6 months. Bottled unfined, filtered in late October 2022.
