Trinity Hill
Hawke's Bay Pinot Gris 2025 750ml

The Woodstock Vineyard is a cooler, later-ripening site that allows grapes to develop maximum aroma and flavour while preserving natural acidity. The fruit was harvested when the balance between ripeness and freshness was deemed optimal. Winemaking was strongly focused on enhancing the perfumed/spicy aromatics and delivering the balance and texture which is crucial to good quality Pinot Gris. The fruit was given some skin contact before being gently pressed and fermented in tank using an aromatic yeast to provide freshness and vibrancy. Post fermentation a portion of the wine was maturated in old 500-litre Puncheons to add texture and mouthfeel to the final blend. A small amount of residual sugar was retained to balance the acidity and the wine was bottled early to capture its youthfulness and vitality.
