Massey Dacta Pinot Gris Marlborough, 2019

Aromas of fresh red apples and spice precede a medium-bodied palate with a broad structure and crisp acidity and a basketful of passionfruit, apple and other fruit flavours. This is a dry white wine with a broad layered texture. Grapes came from relatively young vines planted in 2010 in a three-hectare block in the Alice Mills vineyard. Some of the grapes were left on skins for a short time and the balance directly pressed. After fermentation, the wine was left on lees for several months.
