Isabel Estate Pinot Gris wine is a rich, bespoke addition to any wine collection. Made in the verdant vineyards of New Zealand, it boasts an enchanting concoction of floral and fruit notes, predominantly peach and pear.

It's elegantly luminous with a minerally tone, reflecting the unique terroir. Isabel Estate Pinot Gris encapsulates the full luxury of Marlborough in a bottle, perfect for both traditional and contemporary wine enthusiasts.

Tasting Notes

The Isabel Estate Marlborough Pinot Gris 2019 is light lemon in colour and has appealing aromas of red apple, pear and subtle underlying ginger spice. Crafted in a dry style, it shows refinement and restraint yet delivers an expressive palate with layers of pear, nectarine and baked apple tart. A creamy, textural mid palate adds to the complexity of the wine and gives the wine great length. Drinking beautifully now and will continue to evolve over the next few years.
