PINOT GRIS, Drinking , Vegan Friendly“Gently aromatic pinot gris, with impressively pure, ripe Nashi pear, apple and bready yeast lees flavours. A dry and refreshing wine that’s like biting into a chilled, tree-ripened pear.”
Bob Campbell, Master of Wine
”Bargain-priced, the 2019 vintage was mostly grown in the Awatere Valley, but also in the Southern Valleys and at Kekerengu. Pale and fragrant, it is full-bodied, with good depth of pear and peach flavours, gentle spicy notes, and a dry, smooth finish.”
Michael Cooper
”A fragrant, floral, youthful expression with aromas of white flowers and crisp green pear, there’s a white peach and crunchy apple layer then white pepper. Just dry on the plate with a satin texture and flavours that reflect the bouquet. Acidity adds contrast and crunch. Well made with a balanced, even finish. Ready to drink from today and through 2023.”
Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier
A blend of fruit parcels from the length and breadth of Marlborough made in a dry, mineral style to suit food and age well. Peach, light pear, citrus peel and a hint of spice on the nose. On the palate, pear and peach flavours, mineral texture, medium-bodied and a long finish. Pair it with salads, seafood, poultry and egg dishes — a versatile food wine that pairs particularly well with smoked salmon.

"All along our shores, holding fast to the rocks at low tide, is the seaweed Durvillea, named after the Captain of L'Astrolabe Dumont d'Urville. For me, this seaweed defines the ruggedness of our rocky coast." Simon Waghorn. The Durvillea grapes are grown at carefully selected sites across the Marlborough region and harvested at precisely the right moment to preserve the purity and intensity of flavour. Durvillea is a range of classic Marlborough wines from the Astrolabe vineyards.
