Ash Ridge Hawke’s Bay Estate Pinot Gris (2016)

The debut 2016 vintage (3.5*) is a medium-bodied wine, partly barrel-fermented. Attractively scented, it is vibrantly fruity, with good depth of ripe peach, pear and spice flavours, a touch of complexity, and a finely balanced, dryish (5 grams/litre of residual sugar) finish.
