*COUPERS SHED PINOT GRIS 09*

Coupers Shed Pinot Gris 09

$21.20 750 MLS
2009 ANZWA Champion Pinot Gris, the Couper’s Shed Hawke’s Bay Pinot Gris 2009 (18.5/20), at 13.5% alc., and 13.24 g/l rs. The fruit came from the inland Matapiro site, 35% wild fermented in old oak. Straw yellow in colour, this had shy, white stonefruit aromas, somewhat austere in expression. Slightly sweet on palate, this was richly textured, being quite unctuous. Warm and generous, the stonefruit notes were enhanced by subtle spice and warmth. This should show more over the next 2-3 years.  RC Dec 09
