The 2023 Luna Estate Pinot Gris is a vibrant Martinborough white wine crafted in a fresh yet textural New Zealand style. Sourced from estate vineyards in one of New Zealand’s leading cool-climate regions, the wine highlights ripe orchard fruit, gentle spice and balanced acidity while reflecting Martinborough’s long, slow growing season and mineral-driven character.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with a soft, rounded texture, delivering flavours of baked pear, apple, quince and subtle tropical fruit alongside delicate ginger spice and floral notes. Lees ageing adds complexity and mouthfeel, while fresh acidity keeps the wine clean and balanced through a long, dry finish.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Pinot Gris for customers who enjoy richer, more textural styles with bright fruit and subtle savoury complexity. Martinborough’s cool climate gives the wine freshness and structure while maintaining generous flavour and drinkability. Best enjoyed young and well chilled over the next 2–4 years. Ideal with grilled seafood, roast pork, creamy pasta dishes, antipasto or mushroom risotto.
