Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris Wine Details
Price: $39.00 per bottle

Description: The wine has a perfumey nose with hints of peaches and apricots. This plus a light smoky quality persists on the palate, matching well with light, spicy dishes. The finish is dry and long which allows it to be matched with dishes such as turkey, chicken, shellfish, salmon and pasta. This wine should age well for two to five years and should be served chilled.

Varietal Definition
Pinot Grigio/Gris:
Pinkish-white variety producing a very crisp white wine. Grown in Oregon, the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, and more and more in California, it shows promise for other cool climates. Also known as Tokay d'Alsace in France, Rulander in Germany, and Pinot Grigio in Italy.
