The Black Birch range also directs cooler winds down onto the vines during the autumn months, slowing the ripening process just enough to ripen the Pinot Gris fruit to perfection.

 

Our Pinot Gris has a delicate richness and power driven by the low cropping and fully ripened grapes hanging from the vines that have been nourished by the Black Birch waters.

 

The 2020 Black Birch Pinot Gris is delicate yet powerful.  There is an abundance of quince and ripe pear aromas with full body weight and a creamy texture, laced with gingernut and bread yeast characters.  All held together with beautifully fine acidity.

At this stage, the cool temperatures and dry days let the botrytis fungi work its magic as it starts to reduce the berries into honeyed raisins. Conditions for this process are not always perfect, so when they are, we head out and pick what we can. Volumes are usually very small but the reward is heavenly.

 

The 2022 Late Harvest Pinot Gris has 177g/L residual sugar, giving it a beautiful creamy mouthfeel with delicious honeyed, dried fruit flavours, very fine acidity.
