Waipara Hills Equinox Pinot Gris 2013
This is a fascinating, distinctive wine. Attractive flavours – pear, spice and nuts come swathed in a robe of toast. There is plenty of richness and sweetness, but focus is maintained by the fine line of acidity. “Layers of intrigue,” noted John Belsham, while Jane Boyle said she liked the fact “it is so different.”
