Description

Man O’ War farms a crazy patchwork of vineyards out on the far eastern end of Waiheke Island – rugged hills, sea breezes and plenty of personality. The Exiled Pinot Gris comes from some of the cooler, windier spots that don’t quite ripen for big, rich styles, so instead the fruit makes a fresher, more savoury and textural kind of Gris.

Some of it was fermented in tank to keep the brightness, some went into old barrels for a bit more texture and spice, and the wine spent time on lees to round it out. The end result is crisp and lively but with enough weight and flavour to keep things interesting.

It’s the sort of wine that’s really easy to drink but not at all simple – equally good with food or just on its own. Classic Man O’ War in that it feels wild, coastal and full of character.

Fresh and intense

This Pinot Gris is quite intense and a little too sweet for my palate, but if you love fresh and fruity then it hits the mark.

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

No, all prices are set at the full discounted dozen rate already.

Most wine retailers list at a single-bottle price and then discount 10–15% when you buy six or twelve. We've taken the opposite approach. Since the overwhelming majority of our orders are already 6 bottles or more, our list price is set for the case buyer from the start. There's no inflated single-bottle price to discount down from.

What that means for you:

- One price, same for everyone — no minimum to hit to unlock the best rate
- No mixed-six gymnastics to qualify for a discount
- Our single-bottle price is typically at or below a traditional retailer's by-the-dozen rate

Put simply: the box discount is already baked into the price.

**And if you find it cheaper elsewhere?** Let us know. If the same wine is available at a lower price at another retailer (including at their mixed-six or by-the-dozen rate) we're happy to match it.

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
