About Opawa Pinot Gris 2024 750mL
Opawa Pinot Gris 2024 from Marlborough opens with an inviting bouquet of ripe pear, white peach, and delicate rose petal, underscored by a whisper of ginger spice. On the palate, this wine is textured and generous, delivering juicy stone fruit flavours of nectarine and apricot alongside a refreshing citrus zest that keeps the wine lively and bright. The natural richness of Marlborough Pinot Gris is beautifully balanced by a crisp, mineral-driven acidity that prevents any sense of heaviness. The finish is clean and lingering, with a subtle honeyed note that fades gracefully into a dry, mineral conclusion.
