Awatere River has always focused on quality over quantity and you can be sure that this plush, beautifully textured Pinot Gris screams quality all the way. The outstanding 2025 release has already collected an impressive string of accolades, including Five Stars and 93/100 from Sam Kim, along with a Top 10 placing in Cuisine's Pinot Gris tasting. Serious credentials for a wine at this price!

It's a lovely inviting style with generous layers of ripe pear, juicy peach and melon flavours, complemented by a subtle hint of spice. There's plenty of palate weight and a gorgeous creamy texture, all beautifully balanced by fresh acidity and a long, clean finish. A classic expression of modern Marlborough Pinot Gris with the richness and persistence that sets it apart from the pack.

Tasting Notes

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Vibrant, fresh, fruity and varietal, a wine with immediate impact from flavours of green and brown pear, apple and a fine leesy spice quality. Medium+ weight and intensity, fresh with a satin-cream texture, mild warming alcohol and and finish. Best drinking from late 2025 through 2028."

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "It's splendidly fruited and inviting on the nose, with aromas of crunchy apple, ripe pear, rockmelon, and white floral. The palate displays bright fruit intensity with fleshy texture and crisp acidity, making it flavoursome and vibrant with a lengthy, tasty finish. At its best: now to 2028."
