Notes
‘We produce a dry style Pinot Gris which accentuates the minerality this varietal clearly expresses. In addition to fermentation size and temperature, the diversity of yeasts used to perform fermentation and the extended period of lees contact prior to blending and bottling contributes greatly to the complexity of this wine.
Our 2018 Willamette Valley is bright, refreshing and full of interesting flavors. Strong aromas of elder flower, ripe pears, honey suckle and slight hint of Armenian cucumber combine to create a captivating bouquet. On the palate you will experience flavors of ripe melon, lime zest and lemon pith. This delightful wine finishes crisp with hints of green apple and fresh honeydew melon.’ – Producer’s note
Critics Comment
Josh Raynolds
‘Vivid straw. Fresh pear, honeydew melon and orange aromas and flavors show good clarity. A subtle floral note gains strength as the wine opens up and carries through the broad, smooth and nicely persistent finish, which echoes the pear note.’ – Josh Raynolds, Vinous
