Great dry pinot gris isn’t the easiest thing to find here in NZ, yet Nadine Cross and her team at Peregrine have nailed it. The unusual thing here, is that while its dry, this wine (sourced from their vineyards in Bendigo and Pisa) also has a rich, creamy character from 3 months sitting on its yeast lees. It’s got gorgeous nutmeg and nectarine stone flavours, lifted minerality and excellent length. Sip with a slab of pistachio and pork terrine.
