This is fast becoming an iconic, must have pinot gris.Textured and finely made with some seriously lush fruit ahoy.

Refreshingly lighter in alcohol at 9.5%, Wither Hills Early Light Pinot Gris is deliciously off dry, delivering classic aromas of grapefruit and pear with a spicy apple character.Fruit for our Early Light range of wines is harvested early to capture optimum flavour ripeness whilst reducing the levels of naturally occurring sugar. This lower level of sugar means less alcohol is converted resulting in a lighter in alcohol style of wine.

Established in 1994 and named after the Southern landmark range of the Wither Hills that border the vineyards, Wither Hills has always been dedicated to the philosophy that exceptional wines are created in the vineyard. Now one of New Zealand's most popular brands - Wairau Valley, at it's best. Wither Hills Pinot Gris has lovely fruit purity with layered aromas and flavours of white peach, grapefruit, quince and pear. Pinot Gris is hugely popular and I'm always sure to keep a bottle on hand should friends or family drop by. Succulent flavours of pear and spice reflect my passion for making fruit driven wines.
