WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Our 2023 Estate Pinot Gris is a beautifully distinguished reflection of the Russian River Valley. Generous aromas of ripe melon, floral honeysuckle and jasmine on the nose give this wine an appealingly expressive start. Smooth and incredibly flavorful on the mouth, offering richness and depth at the mid-palate as layered notes of juicy pear, white peach, ripe citrus and sweet green apple are contrasted by hints of florals and minerality. The wine’s bright, lively acidity brings a delightfully crisp and refreshing finish. Enjoy this food-friendly Pinot Gris alongside raw oysters on the half-shell with pickled green strawberry mignonette or, for a heartier choice, pan-roasted pork chops with a peach chutney. For a cheese pairing, try with crescenza cheese topped with fresh peach and basil.
TASTING NOTES:
Displays a fresh, juicy and plump mix of ripe pear, Fuji apple and Asian pear flavors that are crisp and bright, with accents of ginger and lemon thyme that linger.
