The Vineyards

The 2018 Old Coach Road Pinot Gris is a blend of two of our Pinot Gris vineyard blocks. This allows us to take advantage of the various clones and nuances each site offers.

Brightwater Vineyard vines are grown in an extremely stony area of the vineyard where water and nutrient levels are low. This helps us to restrict the plants vigour and to crop at low levels. To further enhance the aromatics, leaves were removed to allow light penetration and air movement around the fruiting zone.

The unirrigated Redwood Valley Vineyard is situated on a gently sloping, north facing clay site - the vines range in age from 10 to 30 years. Vertical shoot positioning helps to expose the berries to sunlight, thus getting maximum intensity and optimal ripeness.

Winemakers Note

We used separate parcels of Pinot Gris from our clay soiled vineyards and stony/silty blocks to blend a complex wine. The wine pulls together fruit from our varying Estate vineyards to make the best our terroirs have to offer.

"The 2018 Old Coach Road Nelson Pinot Gris is pure and varietal showing notes of nashi pear, ripe nectarine and just a hint of ginger. The palate is luscious and textural leaving a lasting Finish."
