Pinot Gris - La Encantada Vineyard, Sta. Rita Hills

Pinot Gris - La Encantada Vineyard, Sta. Rita Hills Wine Details
Price: $30.00 per bottle

Description: On Santa Rosa Road, eleven miles west of Highway 101 is La Encantada Vineyard, the “enchanted” place. There’s definitive enchantment to this wine, with its exotic floral attributes (the beauty of orchids) and rich tropical fruit character layered over a snappy texture. This is a connoisseur’s Pinot 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.
