Lake Chalice The Falcon Marlborough Pinot Gris 2021
- Dry style
- Fresh pear & burnt orange
- Baked pastry & spice
- Balanced acidity
"Bright, even, pale yellow with some depth. The nose is full, rich aromas of ripe pear, apple, honey and white floral. Medium-full bodied, dry-ish to taste, concentrated aromas of succulent pear and apple melded with spiced honey and white floral. The mouthfeel is weighty and almost unctuous. The fruit is ripe with good acidity balance, left linger to a refreshing finish. This amiable Pinot Gris possesses pear and apple fruit, rich honey and spice details on a broad palate. Match with pork satay and Baja fish Tacos over the next 3 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Jun 2022
As we open the door and go inside your first breath is a blend of Burnt orange, mandarin peels, and spices. Hold that thought. That’s the beautiful aroma of this Pinot Gris. Now let’s indulge in one of those vibrant summer stone fruit pastries in the cabinet. The first bite, surprisingly, isn’t sweet. Instead, it’s simple and clean, a delicate balance of acidity with a cream-like texture in the mouth. It’s full of fresh-cut peaches, oranges, a little spice and with a slight sweetness to finish. You can’t help but take another bite just to make sure you got it all. Maybe one more. Do you feel like kissing the baker? That’s what you can expect from this easy-to-drink, Marlborough Pinot Gris.
Harvested entirely from the clay-rich soils of Marlborough’s southern valleys including our flagship Eyrie vineyard in the Waihopai Valley.
Crushed and pressed immediately after harvest before undergoing a cool fermentation to retain a crisp freshness.
