Pinot Gris - Santa Barbara County

Pinot Gris - Santa Barbara County Wine Details
Price: $16.00 per bottle

Description: Like a fresh breeze coming off the sea, carrying scents of apricot and tangerine blossoms, a hint of pear, a whiff of honeysuckle; delicately beautiful, with acidity as taut as a bow string. Perfect with a wide variety of Mediterranean dishes, or spicy Asian cuisine, or just to enjoy the memory of summer on some winter afternoon.

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.
