2024 Rockburn Pinot Gris
Regular price

RRP $28
On the picturesque Gibbston Back Road you will find our Pinot Gris Vineyard. Grapes were hand harvested early morning then quickly returned to the Rockburn Winery and fermented in small batches.
Parcels of the youthful pinot gris have then been subtlety aged in older French oak, thus adding additional layers of texture and weight to the palate and enhancing those exceptional aromatics and flavours.
On the nose you’ll find aromas of ripe peach, nectarine, and Nashi pear with a vibrant luscious palate and long, zesty finish. Complements rich or light seafood meals and most spiced cuisine, very versatile.
Reviews & Accolades
3 1/2 Stars- Michael Cooper - "The 2024 vintage (***1/2) was hand-picked at Gibbston, partly fermented on its skins, and made with use of barrel-aging. Straw-coloured, it is medium-to-full-bodied, crisp and dry, with vigorous, peachy flavours, hints of ginger and spice, a touch of tannin and considerable complexity. Slightly austere in its infancy, it's a vigorous wine, worth cellaring.".
