2007 Umpqua Valley Pinot Gris

Price: $16.00

We source our pinot gris from South Fork Vineyard on an alluvial bench of the South Umpqua River.  The wine is a lovely pale straw in color.  We ferment this wine cool in tank to preserve the fresh floral, herbal and tropical fruit notes and the refreshing acidity.  The aromas are a lush combination of golden delicious apples, tropical pineapple and guava with spice notes of jasmine highlighted by white pepper and sage.  The entry is full and unctuous and the dominant flavors continue the apple and pineapple themes.  The acid is crisp and the finish is long and lingering.  We finish our pint gris bone dry and yet the fruit and texture suggest a continuing sweet fruit impression.
