Orange is quietly making some of the best Pinot Gris in the country, and Printhie have it pretty well nailed. Their Topography range is about showing off the region’s cool-climate strengths, and Gris is right at home here. The high elevation keeps everything bright and fresh, while still giving the wine a bit of weight and texture. The 2024 vintage rolled along steadily and that shows in the glass – plenty of clean orchard fruit, a little savoury edge, and a nice, easy flow across the palate. It’s not trying to be flashy, just a well-balanced, versatile white that’s great with food or on its own. If you’re after a Gris with a bit of personality but still crisp and refreshing, this one’s hard to beat. 95 points"The beauty here is that no matter if you are a pinot grigio or a pinot gris drinker, this wine is of such quality that everyone would enjoy it."- Shanteh Wale (Halliday Wine Companion)

The nose shows complex savoury, earthy, bramble aromas with lifted American oak. The palate is medium bodied with bright red currant and hints of spice and blackberry.

Printhie Sauvignon Blanc is like passionfruit sorbet., wonderfully clean and precise. Has all the drive and intensity of the very best Marlborough Savvy but with added complexity and interest. Get in on the ground floor with this region and it's aromatic white as it is going places in a hurry.
