Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris Wine Details
Price: $14.00 per bottle

Description: Our classic Pinot "Grigio" style, this wine is fresh, bright, and at the forefront of great Oregon Pinot Gris. It is cold fermented in stainless steel tanks for ten months before bottling, and drinks well soon afterwards. The bouquet shows rich fruits — ripe pears and apples, while lush passionfruit and citrus layer the palate. Outstanding complexity and even balance between the structure and fruit make this wine a great choice for everyday drinking. (We know by first-hand experience!)

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.
