Peregrines Pinot Gris 2025
Style
Our organic Pinot Gris is dry in style showing lovely ripe fruit and a subtle texture from a small portion of barrel fermentation. The cooler climate of Central Otago allows us to maintain a refreshing acidity and great length on the palate.
Season
Sunshine and rainfall were in line with long-term averages, while spring frost affected localized areas in Pisa and Bendigo. A stable, warm flowering period delivered uniform fruit set and slightly higher yields, with summer delivering average heat accumulation. Cooler early autumn conditions ensured excellent acid retention.
Winemaking
A combination of whole bunch pressed and destemmed with some skin contact. Wine matured on lees for four months with regular lees stirring.
