Lamont Pinot Gris 2018
Central Otago, South Island, New ZealandLamont is a family wine producer established in 1999 in Bendigo, Central Otago. This comes from clones See Ovaile and 2/15, from a single organically-farmed vineyard. After a whole bunch press, this was fermented cool (10% in neutral French oak) with regular batonnage. Spicy, and sultry on the herbal-led palate, seasoning white peach, nectarine, and grapefruit. The wood plumps out the core, while ample baking spices hem in the sides of this moderate-alcohol, medium+ white. A little honeysuckle and a dusting of sea salt brightens and sweetens the finish. Drinking well now, not too chilled.Tasted: 19 March 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $40.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
