Greywacke Pinot Gris 2024 (12 Bottles) Omaka Valley, Marlborough

by Negociants 0 orders

$312.00

Greywacke Pinot Gris 2024, from Greywacke in Marlborough, New Zealand, expresses a richly textured and expressive Pinot Gris style typical of the region. The nose reveals generous aromas of white nectarine, pear, stone fruit and subtle baking-spice notes. On the palate it is medium-bodied and supple, combining luscious peach and apricot flavours with a hint of citrus zest, gentle almond-like nuttiness and a fine mineral undertow that lends depth. The acidity remains balanced and the finish is long, slightly off-dry and inviting. A recent 2024 tasting awarded this wine 95/100 for its complexity and richness. Greywacke Pinot Gris 2024 is elegant, textured and versatile, ideal with roasted pork, creamy dishes or summer salads. ABV 14.4 percent, screw-cap closure.

About Greywacke Wines

Greywacke (pronounced Greywacky) is the Marlborough label of the Judd family and the name of New Zealand’s most abundant bedrock. These understated grey river stones are found throughout Marlborough’s rivers and alluvial vineyard soils. Established in 2009, Greywacke is truly a family affair and while the company now exports its wines all over the world, the ethos is very much ‘keep it simple and hands-on’ with a small, dedicated team running the company from Greywacke HQ in the heart of Marlborough’s Omaka Valley. The fruit is sourced from mature vineyards in prime viticultural sites to optimise the potential afforded by Marlborough’s sunny South Pacific climate.

“This is a restrained, detailed style of pinot gris with plenty of ripe stone fruit but also some subtle biscuit and baking spice that helps to create a more complex, aromatic wine. A touch of sweetness fleshes out the palate whilst the finish is long and savoury. Looks a touch unresolved right now but with a little time in bottle will be delicious 14 Oct 2025.” Drink 2026 – 2029
