2003 Pinot Gris Grace Hill Vineyard

2003 Pinot Gris Grace Hill Vineyard Wine Details
Price: $14.00 per bottle

Description: Only 1.6 tons/acre were produced in 2003, resulting in a concentrated, intensely varietal wine. Fermentation was in neutral oak barrels in the Alsatian manner but without allowing secondary fermentation. Pear and green apple dominate the bouquet and crisp citrus flavors follow.

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.
