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.
Fermented with wild yeasts in oak barrels for 10 months. White peach, ripe citrus, and mineral notes, with vanilla, toasted hazelnut, and silky lees structure. Persistent finish, precise acidity, and polished edges.
Grown in our Redstone Vineyard in Hawke’s Bay’s warm Bridge Pa Triangle, where iron-rich red metal soils produce ripe, supple, and aromatic wines with depth and texture.
Elegantly aromatic and made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes. Showing raspberries, strawberries, watermelon, and finishing with a hint of vanilla. Perfect for summer drinking.
Predominantly coastal Chardonnay from Te Awanga and Tuki Tuki, where cool sea breezes preserve freshness and fragrance. Gravel and clay soils with a touch of limestone lend subtle minerality, while warmer inland fruit from our Redstone Vineyard adds richness and balance to the mid-palate.
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.
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.
Bright, juicy red and black fruits and spice. This is classic Central Pinot with the touch of class from one of NZ’s top producers – a no brainer.
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.
