Welcome Swallow Pinot Gris 2023
Favourable early season conditions delivered strong canopy growth and led into settled weather for an even fruit set. The hot and dry summer that followed set up an early harvest and great fruit quality. This season produced a pinot gris with lovely pear, citrus and white floral aromatics, and fresh bright flavours of mandarin and Central Otago nectarine.

Welcome Swallow Pinot Noir 2023
Beautifully fruited and enticing, dark plum, sweet cherry and floral aromas lead to a delightfully silky palate with juicy fruit intensity and a lingering smooth finish. This fresh and vibrant pinot noir sings Central Otago as clearly as the Welcome Swallow’s twittering, chattering call. A versatile wine, ideal with an antipasto platter, barbeque or light style Italian dishes.
