Pinot Gris from New Zealand
Pinot Gris has enjoyed a dramatic rise to fame in New Zealand. Grown throughout the country, New Zealand Pinot Gris is more akin to Alsace in style than the drier Pinot Grigio. Much New Zealand Pinot Gris undergoes a small amount of barrel ageing, with wild yeasts and lees stirring for complexity.
The biggest producer of New Zealand Pinot Gris is Marlborough, followed by Hawke's Bay, Gisborne and North Canterbury.

The warmer North Island climate tends to create ripe, rich, powerful and concentrated styles. (Hawke's Bay and Auckland)
