THE MOUNTAINEER PINOT GRIS

From the makers of Mount Michael Wines, The Mountaineer has launched its first-ever collection of artisan wines. Included in the range are this Pinot Gris, a Pinot Rose, and a second vintage Pinot Noir. Each drop in the new range has been carefully handcrafted to provide that exquisite Central Otago boutique for all to enjoy.

The Pinot Gris reflects the purity and intensity of the mountains that surround the vineyard. Crafted from fruit hand-harvested from a single Gibbston site and fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel, this wine provides a premium drinking experience. It is made in a dry style and captures the freshness and energy that is representative of Central Otago.

Jody Pagey, head winemaker at Mount Michael Wines, said, “As a small and passionate team, we all feel incredibly proud to be introducing our debut collection, which is already causing quite the stir, receiving a handful of prestigious accolades from some of New Zealand’s most recognised wine reviewers and wine awards.”
