McDonald Pinot Gris
Grown at our Matapiro Vineyard in the cooler Crownthorpe Terraces of Hawke’s Bay — our most elevated and inland site. The pronounced contrast between warm days and cool nights produces wines with bold aromatics, vibrant fruit, and crisp natural acidity.
Aromas of fresh strawberries and citrus zest. On the palate, it offers vibrant red fruit flavors with crisp acidity and a touch of minerality. The finish is clean and refreshing.
Grown on our Matapiro Vineyard in the elevated Crownthorpe Terraces (200 m above sea level), this inland site experiences warm days and cool nights — ideal conditions for developing vibrant aromatics and bright natural acidity.
Deep crimson in appearance with youthful red hues. Lifted ripe berry fruit aromas, with hints of pepper and dark chocolate. The aromas are complimented by sweet, red berry fruit flavours, with spice and a silky tannin finish.
Made in tank & barrels, showing succulent pear, melon, citrus, and hints of honey. Lightly off-dry, can pair with spicy cuisine.
An aromatic profile of elderflower, grapefruit, and passionfruit, complemented by herbal notes and underlying stonefruit. On the palate, it is full-bodied and finely textured with a flinty edge, a touch of vanilla richness from oak, and a persistent finish.
The newest addition to our Grand Reserve collection, sourced from a premium Lowburn vineyard. Elegant, expressive, and true to the region — a Pinot Noir that beautifully balances the charm and challenge of this noble grape.
Lofty notes of brambles and dark red fruits dominate, with subtle background spice and fresh pencil shavings. The palate is loaded with dense ripe red fruits and has a silky-smooth texture. Tannins are firm but integrated with a supple mouthfeel leading to a classic Pinot Noir finish that is long, savoury and mouth filling.
Bright and lively flavours of pear and white nectarine. A soft palate expression moderated acidity and sugar balance with an elegant structure and persistence of flavour.
