Johanneshof Pinot Gris

If there’s one thing Warwick and Edel from Johanneshof know it’s how to make damn good aromatics! When we say that we’re talkin’ Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris and Riesling in particular – but check out their Single Vineyard Pinot Noir if you get a chance too, it’s a cracker!

Johanneshof are like masters at work and they learnt their trade in the world famous Rheingau region of Germany. That’s the home of some mind blowingly good ripe, rich and weighty aromatic style white wines.

These guys have gained a real following over the years for consistently crafting first class aromatic wine in the heart of New Zealand wine country, Marlborough. This is their 2025 vintage Pinot Gris and by taking out a Gold medal at the Marlborough Wine Show 2025 it marked a fifth Gold medal in six vintages for this label!

Warwick and Edel describe this release as “Dry to off-dry in style, this beautifully balanced Pinot Gris displays stone fruit, guava and chamomile characters with a soft acidity. Crisp with tones of white peach on the palate, it is a stunning wine with a luscious, silky smooth finish. Perfect with seared or grilled fish, chicken dishes, antipasto platters or just great on its own. At its best: now to 2030.”
