Torea Gisborne Pinot Gris

Torea Gisborne Pinot Gris is a generous, full-bodied take on the variety, bringing jasmine, almond and ripe pear aromas into a rounded palate of pear, fig and gentle spice. Sourced from selected Gisborne vineyards, it has the easy charm of a fruit-forward white while offering enough texture and flavour to hold the table. Torea is a family-owned New Zealand label named for the oystercatcher, and its wines are made with food in mind. Pour this with grilled fish, shellfish, creamy chicken dishes, or a relaxed Friday dinner that deserves something beyond the usual.

What the winery says:

The fruit was sourced from selected vineyards across Gisborne. The official note describes jasmine, almond and pear on the nose, followed by a full-bodied palate of pear and fig with a measured touch of spice. Bottled at 13% alcohol, it reflects Torea's focus on bright, fruit-forward New Zealand wines and food-friendly styles.
