Villa Maria Pinot Gris

I finally tried (some days ago) one of the bottles of white bought in New Zealand. Bought them hastily, while leaving  Queenstown with Chiara after a nice dinner in a kind of pub. Bought hastily but not without judgement, as the excellent guide of Michael Cooper indicates the Villa Maria Pinot Gris  East Coast private Bin as one of the 'best buy'. Indeed, at a very reasonable price (about 20 NZD), this wine  is absolutely excellent. 

A complex white,  with a rich fruit (peach?) and a  lasting final.  The only defect: I drank it alone.
