We have always rated Lawson's Pinot Gris and this 2023 is right up there with some of their best. Deliciously lush, yet dry and highly drinkable our bets are on this to become a firm favourite this summer.  


Winery Notes (2023 Vintage)
"This an immediately appealing wine with lovely pear and stone fruit aromas accompanied by a touch of spice. The palate is just off dry and shows ripe, orchard fruit flavours with a creamy finish, lovely weight and rich texture.

Grapes for this wine are grown in the Waihopai Valley where clay soils and big diurnal temperature shifts produce wines with lovely palate weight and pronounced aromatics. The vines are shoot thinned, crop thinned and colour thinned to reduce overall crop levels and ensure even ripening. Our lower crop levels produce more concentrated fruit characters.

Most of this blend was gently pressed and the juice run into stainless steel tanks. It was then inoculated with a cultured yeast chosen specifically to enhance the wines aromatic profile. The remaining 10% was pressed straight to barrel and fermented with wild yeast – that’s the yeast that is naturally present on the grapes. Post fermentation, the wines were aged on lees (the sediment from the spent yeast cells) for several months. This gives added flavour and mouth-feel."


92/100 Cameron Douglas MS, April 2024 (2023 Vintage)
"A very attractive bouquet with scents of white pepper dusted nectarine, pear and yellow apple and a fine lees quality. Just dry as the wine touches the palate with a satin-smooth texture, flavours of white fleshed fruit to mirror the bouquet, there’s a fine citrus quality accentuated by the acid line. A core of fruit mid palate, balanced, well made and ready. Best drinking from late 2024 through 2028+."

4 Stars Cuisine Pinot Gris Tasting 2023 (2022 Vintage)
"Youthful and ripe with pears, apricots and bright florals on the nose and through the juicy palate. The fruit intensity is excellent and the purity of fruit is evident. A wine with presence and persistence on the finish."


4 Stars Michael Cooper (2021 Vintage)
"The attractively scented 2021 vintage is a basically dry style (4.6 grams/litre of residual sugar). Pale lemon, it is full-bodied, with strong, vibrant peach, pear, lychee and spice flavours, fresh acidity and very good delicacy and harmony. Drink now or cellar."
