Dom Maxwell Waiata Vineyard Pinot Gris 2020
About the wine
A textbook Pinot Gris made with nothing but quality in mind
- Dom has sourced some seriously sought after grapes from Waiata, a top-notch, family-run single vineyard nestled in a secluded pocket of Waipara Valley. Although Waipara produces only 2% of NZ's wine, the quality is out of this world. This wine is your golden ticket to this tightly-guarded corner of the globe.
- This bottle is a bit of a know it all - a neatly packaged tour of all there is to love about Pinot Gris. Outstandingly fresh with plenty of juicy stone fruits on the palate. We're talking pear, peach, just a hint of nectarine and there's even a sprinkle of cinnamon to give you that fine finish that can be so hard to come by.
- And the best part? It's entirely Angel funded! The quality of Dom's wine means everything to him, and with your help he has been able to break free from his desk and get back into the vineyard itself. By no means has this wine fallen short of any of the TLC it deserves.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Dom Maxwell
- Dom is one of the best winemakers in New Zealand. He was voted New Zealand Winemaker of the Year in 2018 and 2011, he also won the prestigious Decanter International Trophy for Pinot Noir in 2014.
- We had a nod from Rod Easthope that Dom wanted to break free, become an independent winemaker and create a brighter future for his family. Frankly it was a chance we couldn't pass up.
- Dom has made wine for some exceptional Kiwi wineries, including Muddy Water and Greystone. Now he's able to put his own name on the label to make wines for himself and for you.
