Greywacke
Greywacke Pinot Gris
Imagine a curious concoction of fresh nashi pear, sticky gingerbread and crystallised orange peel – drizzled with alpine honey and infused with delicate white floral fragrance. An exotic mélange with a tangy citrus palate, brimming with sweet mandarin marmalade and focused by vibrant acidity. Greywacke Pinot Gris is ripe, opulent and ‘oldworld’ in style, with an off-dry finish that adds weight to its lingering palate.
Description
GREYWACKE
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.
