Standing in this tiny vineyard on Ponui Island overlooking Te Kawau Bay, you could easily imagine yourself in paradise and want to remain their full-time. And then you remember that it’s hard work making wine – so you shrug and say “best leave this to someone else” and walk away. Winemaker Duncan McTavish and viticulturist Matt Allen love it though, and work tirelessly to craft this clean, floral, pinot gris from GM215 clone vines. Enjoy with a wedge of Manchego cheese.
