From a single vineyard site in Fairhall. Delicate, fine, aromatic nose of lime, lemon, herbs and honey. The palate is off-dry with nice texture and sweet melon and lemon fruit, as well as some minerality. Good acidity. Really attractive. 90\/100<\/p>\n<p><strong>Greywacke Pinot Gris 2009 Marlborough, New Zealand<br \/>\n<\/strong>14.5% alcohol. Complex and grapey on the nose with some herby smoky notes. The palate is fresh and spicy with rich texture. There&#8217;s a bit of pepper here, too, and a hint of sweetness, although it finishes dry and spicy. Lively, rich, fresh and enticing. 92\/100<\/p>\n<p><strong>Greywacke Late Harvest Gewurztraminer 2009 Marlborough<br \/>\n<\/strong>From a single vineyard site in Brancott. 12% alcohol. Very sweet, melony and intense with lively pear and grape fruitiness and some spicy vitality. It&#8217;s not too musky, and the balance is just right between the sweetness and acidity. Delicious. 93\/100<\/p>\n<p>UK agent: Liberty Wines<\/p>\n<p>Find these wines with\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wine-searcher.com\/index.lml?referring_site=WAN\" target=\"_blank\">wine-searcher.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few weeks back I reported on the lovely Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc, from Kevin Judd.
