The 2025 Mt Difficulty Roaring Meg Pinot Gris is a vibrant Central Otago white crafted from estate and regional vineyards, designed to showcase a modern, fruit-forward and approachable style. Part of the Roaring Meg range, it reflects the winery’s focus on purity, freshness and drinkability, with a subtle off-dry touch that enhances texture and balance. The nose is aromatic and expressive, showing jasmine, white peach, pear and apple, layered with hints of citrus blossom, spice and floral lift.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a rounded, supple texture and a gentle sweetness balanced by fresh acidity. Flavours of orchard fruit, baked pear, citrus and light spice lead to a juicy, vibrant and well-balanced finish. The style is lively and fruit-driven, combining richness with freshness and easy drinkability.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great everyday premium Pinot Gris and a reliable crowd-pleaser. It’s ideal for customers who enjoy slightly off-dry, fruit-forward whites with a soft, rounded profile. This is not lean or overly dry—it’s juicy, aromatic and very approachable. Drink now or over the next 3–4 years. Perfect with spicy Asian dishes, seafood, salads or casual dining.
