Planted in 2002 on the warm and sheltered Merrill's Block within our L'Attitude Vineyard, this is the second vintage of Pinot Blanc for Nevis Bluff.
This full bodied and delicately perfumed wine is picked early in the vineyard to encourage freshness in this early drinking style.
Pear, spice and citrus aromas are followed by flavours of stonefruit with a delicate creamy like texture underpinned by mineral notes and refreshing acidity. This wine is a
delicate, off dry style of Pinot Blanc.

"Fresh, full-bodied wine, grown at Pisa and fermented in an even split of tanks and old oak casks. Dryish, with delicate, citrusy, appley, slightly spicy flavours, showing a touch of complexity, a hint of nectarines, balanced acidity and a lingering finish. Well worth cellaring."
