Secret Stone Pinot Gris CONFIRM VINTAGE

Pinot Gris Grigio Marlborough New Zealand
Named for the rare and precious greenstone hidden beneath the riverbeds throughout New Zealand's South Island, Secret Stone is sculpted into a veritable gem of a wine, inspired by the ancient local secrets and traditions which are passed down from one generation to the next. Nestled within these greenstone heartlands, lies the Marlborough region, idyllically suited to white varietial grapes. Pinot Gris excels, producing richly textured wines with ripe flavours expressing the region's characteristic articulation of tropical fruits, bound by refreshing acidity.

Case of 12

Secret Stone is Marlborough through and through. Pinot Gris is collated from highly specialised vineyards in the very heart of Marlborough, each contributing personality to the final wine. Parcels are harvested to a timetable determined by full physiological ripeness, judicious acids and optimal levels of natural fruit sugar. Grapes are delivered promptly to the winery where they are crushed and inoculated to select yeasts. The must is treated to a cool, temperature monitered vinification in controlled fermenters to retain all the bright, vibrant fruit characters. Secret Stone is treated to a spell on sedimentery yeast lees to improve texture and develop fine complexity.
Pale straw yellow colour. The nose is full of attractive fruit aromas, peach and currant, citrus, pinenut and pear. A rich palate of orange, chalk and aromatic oils, a hint of bay leaf, almond, apple and banana crisp. Always a refreshing drink whilst young, Pinot Gris is well known for developing richer honeyed fruit as it develops in bottle.

Secret Stone
With a plan to hero the premium wines and regions of New Zealand there was no question that our initial focus would be sauvignon blanc from New Zealand's premier region, Marlborough...

"Made from the 2004 vintage, this wine has been passionately created to reflect the distinctive Sauvignon Blanc style for which the region has become well regarded throughout the world."

Secret Stone

A wine almost as rare as the precious greenstone that inspired its name. Found in the South Island, greenstone is crafted into beautiful carvings that are passed on from one generation to the next. Like the land itself, they are much treasured and from this much treasured land comes the finest parcels of fruit which have been selected for Secret Stone.

The result is the Secret Stone Sauvignon Blanc, a wine fresh, vibrant and elegant. Distinctively Marlborough.

Once received at the winery the fruit is de-stemmed, pressed and chilled to 10-12C before gentle pressing. The resulting juices are cold settled for 48-72 hours and racked in preparation for fermentation. Following fermentation in stainless steel the wine is chilled to 0C prior to racking and selection for the final blend. The primary objective being to protect the fresh vibrant characters of the expressive fruit.
