Stoneleigh Marlborough Pinot Gris CONFIRM VINTAGE

Pinot Gris Grigio Marlborough New Zealand
True to Stoneleigh's distinctive style, this flavoursome Pinot Gris captures the essence of Marlborough, a unique terroir which gives rise to the wine's quality. The skill at vinification and the resources available to Stoneleigh's winemaking team all contribute to a Pinot Gris with its own sense of place. Crafted from ripe, intensely flavoured grapes, dry in style, beautifully balanced with good weight of fruit and refreshing acidity. Completely unwooded and unoaked, Stoneleigh is bottled young to capture the fresh aromatics of Marlborough Pinot Gris.
From grapes grown close to the mighty Wairau River, conditions can extend the hang time of fruit on the vine enabling it to reach maximum flavour intensity, creating a wine with fine aromatics and palate richness. The grapes are harvested once a desired concentration is reached and berry shrivel has begun. Fruit is crushed through a bag press, juices are drained and pressed from skins to minimise excessive phenolic extraction, then settled to remove solids. Juices are slowly fermented by choice aromatic yeasts at cool temperatures, to retain the very distinctive regional and varietal character. Stoneleigh remains on yeast lees for a spell before receiving a light fining and filtering prior to bottling. Alcohol 13.9%

Stoneleigh offers a range of premium quality wines with distinctly Marlborough flavours - refreshing and pure.

Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris vines can all be found on the Stoneleigh vineyard and the site is home to some of the oldest grafted Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc blocks in Marlborough.

On the site of a former riverbed at the northern side of Marlborough’s Wairau Valley in New Zealand, the Stoneleigh range takes it name from the abundance of stones that cover the area. The exceptional quality of the wines owes much to these stones. These stones reflect heat up onto the vines enhancing the ripening process and within the soil create the ideal growing environment. Located in the heart of Rapaura area and the locally known Golden Mile of vineyards the Stoneleigh Vineyard,178 ha, is on the northern side of the Wairau Valley, within 2 km of the Wairau River and the Richmond Ranges. The vineyard has a range of soil types but includes more of the typically stony and recent riverbed soils.

Stoneleigh's award winning history came into being after only a decade of winemaking at the Marlborough estate.

The Stoneleigh winemaking style is a direct reflection of the unique characteristics of the terroir. Winemaker Jamie Marfell, aims to maximise these unique flavours inherent in the fruit and deliver a wine of exquisite quality and style. The unique stony free draining alluvial soils, together with the slightly warmer climatic conditions of the Rapaura area, produces fruit that ripens earlier than other regions of Marlborough. These grapes have a ripe fruit spectrum which is distinctive in style and quality compared with grapes from other parts of Marlborough and New Zealand.

A minimalist winemaking approach is carried through all stages of winemaking and only subtle intervention is employed to add complexity and enhance the fruit’s unique characteristics. By only using premium juice, the wine has concentrated flavour, finesse and bright fruit expression. The yeast selected for fermentation is chosen to complement and lift the expression of terrior. Finally, the wines are very lightly fined before bottling to give clarity of flavour and style. And the result - aromatic, elegant Marlborough wines that are a true expression of their terroir.
