Wine Details
Price:
$18.00 per bottle
Description:
The 2004 Pinot Gris perfectly captures the essence of the pinot gris grapes in the vineyard. It is bright and crisp with tropical notes of star fruit and pineapple. Like the 2003, it was barrel fermented and remained in the barrels, sur lies, for four months. This gives it body and depth that sustain the bright crispness and fruit flavors all the way through to the finish. Great for sipping by itself or with cheese, poultry, or seafood, it also holds up well to spicy curries or hard-to-match Latin or Asian cuisine. Just 51 cases were bottled.
