Ata Rangi Pinot Gris 2023 x 12

Explore the Distinctive Qualities of Ata Rangi Pinot Gris 2023

Our Pinot Gris was originally influenced by the style of wines from Alsace, and has developed over the years into our own, uniquely Martinborough style. Gentle aromas of lychee, lemon and ginger are the focus of the 2023 Pinot Gris. The palate is fresh and finely textured with flavours of coriander seed, lemon verbena and a hint of Turkish Delight. Fresh acidity ties this generous, complex wine together, giving a long and satisfying finish to the palate.

From vines now over 26 years of age, the depth and complexity of flavour on the palate make 
it one of our favourite and versatile wine matching choices.  The fresh vibrancy of the fruit 
aromas make for a charming aperitive while the weight on the palate balances dishes with 
heady spice and/or challenging flavours. Fermented in neutral barrels for extra texture, this 
Pinot Gris will benefit from bottle age.
