Vin Gris of Pinot Noir

Vin Gris of Pinot Noir Wine Details
Price: $16.00 per bottle

Description: The 2004 harvest, earliest yet for us by two weeks, began with picking the Pinot Noir for this wine on August 10th. We take it a bit earlier than we would for a red so the grapes still have bright focused acidity. The grapes are delicately whole-cluster pressed and the juice is fermented off the skins. The resulting wine is a brilliant salmon color (wild, of course) with hints of copper. It is fresh, floral and so delicious that we must limit ourselves at the winery to just a case apiece for personal consumption, lest we drink it all.
