2024 St Clair Godrey's Creek Reserve Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris
Its Origins
Saint Clair Family Estate is owned by Neal and Judy Ibbotson, viticulture pioneers in Marlborough since 1978. Grapes were originally supplied to local wine companies; however a desire to extend the quality achieved in the vineyard through to the finished wine led to the establishment of Saint Clair Family Estate in 1994. The Saint Clair name originates from the vineyard property, first settled by the Sinclair family. Pioneer James Sinclair built one of the first homes in Blenheim and was closely associated with the early development of the town. Over time the name of the property reverted to the original Saint Clair. Saint Clair has developed six vineyards in different sites in Marlborough, including the Rapaura, Awatere, Waihopai and Omaka Valleys. Only superior fruit from the best locations for each individual variety is selected for the Saint Clair label.
What The Critics Say
94/100 Wine Orbit, Sam Kim
"Wonderfully fruited and elegantly expressed, the inviting bouquet shows poached pear, rockmelon, pineapple, and white floral aromas. The palate is equally satisfying with excellent weight and fleshy texture, superbly framed by beautifully pitched acidity, making it stylish and satisfying. Jan 2025." Drink 2025 - 2028
92+/100 Cameron Douglas MS (2022 vintage)
"A rounded, fuller and blossoming bouquet with scents of pear and white peach, baked and fresh apple then a white spice and lees complexity. A sily rounded texture touches the palate first then a combination of white fleshed fruits and the acid line engage the senses simultaneously. Plenty of acidity and freshness with flavours of pears and apple, lemon and white peach. There’s also a hint of dried herb adding breadth. Balanced, well made, warm, generous and ready to drink from 2024 through 2027."
4 Stars Cuisine Magazine, March 2025 (2022 vintage)
"Very pale in the glass with bottle development characteristics evident on the nose that verge into a wonderfully savory space. The palate is still bright and fresh with pip-fruit flavours sitting against spice. Lively and powerful."
