Nevis Bluff Central Otago Oak Aged Pinot Gris 2017
Lavender, lime and spice aromatics. Soft lightly oaked palate showing great texture, elegance and drive. This wine shows lots of softness, density and persistence.
L'Attitude Vineyard, Cromwell Basin. Plant density is 3,800 vines/ha, with cropping at 1.5kg per vine. Manipulated canopy ensures phenolic ripeness. The grapes were handpicked from a selection of different clones to create complexity.
This alternative style of Pinot Gris from Nevis Bluff was firstly selected in the vineyard, and then whole bunch pressed with the free run juice going into French barriques of which no new oak was used. Natural yeast started and completed the fermentation with the wines being racked off their gross lees six months later, then left for another three months in cask. The wine was then cold stabilised, lightly fined and filtered.
