McDonald Pinot Gris

Low ABV

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.

An optimal ripening year. Hand-picked, fermented with wild yeasts, aged in French Oak 12 months. Unfiltered, unfined, unforgettable. Flavors of cherry, raspberry, and earthy herbs. Palate shows roasted notes and minerality, balancing elegance with brooding complexity.

Elegantly aromatic and made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes. Showing raspberries, strawberries, watermelon, and finishing with a hint of vanilla. Perfect for summer drinking.

Gwen Rosé is made from a selection of Syrah based rosé from our best Hawke’s Bay vineyards.Warm, sheltered gravel soils give us low yielding vines, producing beautifully fragrant and well-structured wines.

Our take on a summer classic! This sparkling-wine based cocktail features a base our Gold Digger sparkling wine, a dash of Aperol (orange) liqueur, and just a splash of sparkling water, garnished with a slice of orange, all over ice. The perfect refresher.

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.

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.
