It’s a wine I have a love-hate relationship with. There seems to be two distinct styles; one I love, the other I hate. I’m not great at articulating what it is I don’t like, and never know til I taste whether I’ve won the lottery or not. That’s one reason I love winery tastings (and ended up buying a few bottles of this wine).

Think of the humidity; it will seem much less like taunting.

Pinot Gris is indeed great for hot summer nights, so long as it’s not too sweet (for my palate at least :-). If you like Kiwi PG, had that Brancott Estate Letter Series one that really quite enjoyed http://socialvignerons.com/2015/11/04/2014-brancott-estate-letter-series-f-fairhall-vineyard-pinot-gris-marlborough/ Cheers 😉

Thanks for that. I have drunk a few Brancott Estate wines I’ve liked. Not tried that PG though. I’ll have to investigate! Cheers, Su

Cheers. If you ever make to Auckland, we’ll visit the winery (and a few others). The Big T and I spent a very pleasant afternoon tasting.

Don’t think so. There’s a lot around, but has bee for a while. Viognier seems to be the new kid on the block here.

This time last year I was in Munich, reveling in the snowy landscapes and the chance to rug up and eat hearty food! Summer is so much sweeter when it arrives on wings of hope.
