A delicious Pinot Gris using fruit from Marlborough and Waipara wine regions. This Pinot Gris entices you with fresh pear, peach, nuances of almond meal. Rich fruit with a touch of creaminess and subtle spice leads into a lively, off-dry finish.

For our Giesen Estate Pinot Gris we select fruit from vineyards in the Marlborough and Waipara wine regions. Marlborough fruit adds acidity to the wine and Waipara delivers beautiful aromatics, blossom.

Each parcel of Pinot Gris is harvested at optimum ripeness. Fermented in stainless steel tanks we use very select aromatic yeasts to make the wine more intense. We stop ferment early to retain a small amount of acidity and natural sugar to give the wine it's off-dryness.

The wine is held on lees for 3-4 months to help build mouth feel & texture, then blended and bottled.
