Sato Pinot Gris L’Atypique 2022 by Sato from Central Otago is a distinctive, small batch expression that leans into texture, savoury detail and natural balance. This is a thoughtful, character driven style that will appeal to drinkers looking beyond the ordinary.

Aromas of ripe pear, quince and stone fruit are layered with notes of almond, spice and a gentle earthy tone. On the palate, the Sato Pinot Gris L’Atypique, 2022 is dry and textural, with soft phenolics, moderate acidity and a savoury edge that builds complexity through the finish. There is real weight and interest here, without heaviness.

This wine shines at the table. Pair it with roast chicken, pork belly, grilled vegetables or richer seafood dishes. It is an excellent choice for fans of serious, food focused Pinot Gris with depth and individuality.
