The Cherry Orchard, Bannockburn Single Vineyard Central Otago Pinot Gris (2017)

From a 1-hectare site and partly barrel-fermented, the weighty, dry 2014 vintage (3.5*) is drinking well in 2017. Light lemon/green, it is mouthfilling, with fresh acidity woven through its citrusy, slightly minerally flavours. Good food wine.
