Villa Maria, Private Bin Pinot Grigio, Gisborne, 2020

A great value Pinot Grigio, made with a blend of grapes from warmer Gisborne and the cooler South Island. Pear aromas with a pretty floral edge are followed by a fresh palate, with a creaminess to the texture thanks to time on lees. Ripe orchard fruit (Gisborne) is balanced by fresh green herbal notes (South Island) that add punch to the finish.
