Very rarely do we get to offer out what is perhaps NZ'S greatest Pinot Gris- it is made in tiny amounts so jump on this. "From the first vintage in 1986, for many years Dry River towered over other NZ Pinot Gris, by virtue of its exceptional body, flavour richness and longevity. A sturdy Martinborough wine, it has peachy, spicy characters that can develop great subtlety and richness with maturity ( at around five years old for top vintages, which also hold for a decade. ) .It is grown in the estate vineyards and nearby Craighall Vineyard; the majority of the vines are over 25 years old. The youthful 2009 is fleshy, with ripe stone fruit and spice flavours, a sliver of sweetness and lovely depth, delicacy and harmony." M.Cooper. 5 Stars.
