  2/21/2015 - Callum's Corkers Likes this wine: 86 Points

  This wine is the 'Marlborough' label, not the 'Envoy' one. Tasted Feb 2015, well chilled. £11.66 from winedirect.co.uk
  Good straw colour. Loved the nose of white stone fruit. It is medium bodied, big(ish) in the glass, for a New Zealand PG it is more Alsace than Italian. Not the best NZ P/Gris I've had - that's Mt Difficulty, at almost twice this price - but this is well made, has a lovely acid balance to all that rich fruit, and has just a hint of Marlborough wet river stone about it. Needs to be well chilled! (It can handle it.) At around £11.00 is good value-for-money, defo buy again.
