Man O’ War Estate Pinot Gris is made from grapes grown on Waiheke Island and sometimes includes a portion of grapes from the smaller Ponui Island, which are transported by barge. The warm climate of both islands coupled with the high sunshine hours and coastal breezes provides ripe grapes with flavours of pear, ripe apples and, often, a touch of honey from botrytis.
This wine is full bodied, off dry and fleshy with a soft structure, making it smooth and enjoyable as a youthful wine.
