Neck Of The Woods Central Otago Pinot Gris 2022
- Dry style
- Lemon & ripe pear
- White blossom
- Juicy finish
Ripe pear, nutmeg, lemon and vanilla bean on the nose with more citrus notes to follow on the palate. White blossom and refined stone fruit on the front palate leads to a richly textured mid-palate that finishes juicy and long.
Parcels of fruit were hand-picked from an elevated vineyard in Pisa on the 4th April. Whole bunches were loaded into the press and the juice gently extracted over a three hour cycle with no press cuts. The juice was settled in tank overnight before being racked to a neutral 500 litre barrel (14%) and a stainless steel tank (86%).
The stainless steel ferment was kept cool at 14 degrees whilst the barrel was left to its own devices reaching warmer temperatures which contributes to the amazing texture of this wine. The wine in the barrel was kept on lees for 3.5 months with no stirring and the stainless component was racked off gross less post-fermentation. Mother Nature was kind to Central Otago during the 2021-22 growing season enabling us to make rich and generously textured wine with great purity. The resulting wine is complexly layered with great ageing potential and endless food pairing possibilities.
