Bellbird Spring Home Block White from Waipara

This wine, although an intriguing blend of Pinot Gris, Riesling, Muscat, and Gewurztraminer, is beautifully blended giving the weight of a Condrieu, the flesh of a Gewurztraminer, and the aromatics of both Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer.
Stone fruit runs riot, with hints of honey and wax and citrus on the nose with a sprinkle of honeysuckle dew on the nose. The palate weight is something to behold, fleshy and full with incredible balance and poise.
91 points.
