Nashi Pear | Melon | White Peach “The Paradox of Duality: without one, the other would not exist …” – Leah Bodette Ynostrosa
Drama; the tale of two styles; Gris or Grigio. As Muse and Melpomene represented the struggle between comedy and tragedy; Zonte’s have found the magical place between rich & sweet and clean & vibrant.
Delicate, dignified and delightful, our Nashi Pear Pinot Grigio also displays lovely Melon and White Peach blossom highlights with a crisp zingy finish. Downright delectable. The texture and acidity of this wine when combined with food, unite into a new flavour sensation.

* Gold Medal – China Wine & Spirits Awards 2024
* 91 points – WinePilot.com, Ken Gargett, Nov 2024 ”The labels from these guys are sometimes as much fun as their wines, but this one has me a bit mystified. Supposedly, it represents the best of Gris and Grigio though I can’t really see how that works – clearly, above my paygrade.
* The wine itself does impress. The colour is a pale yellow, but it does have that shade of grey that the variety often lends itself to. The nose is clean and bright, with vibrant notes of pears and apples and hints of citrus. There is even a vague whiff of strawberries and cream. A refreshing style with a herbal touch, good energy and medium length. Enjoy this now and over the next three to four years.”
