Tasting Notes
Our 2018 Willamette Valley Pinot Gris opens in
the glass with alluring stone fruit aromas of white
peach, nectarine and a hint of lime oil. Crisp on
the palate, this wine offers subtle notes of lemon
rind and a delicious mix of exotic fruits like kiwi,
guava. The finish is crisp, dry and refreshing.
Winemaker Notes
The spring and summer of the 2018 growing
season were some of the warmest and driest on
record in the Willamette Valley. Followed by cool
autumn weather, the Pinot Gris fruit ripened to its
full potential with fruit flavors which were more
tropical and lush. After harvest, the fruit was
pressed gently then racked clean to stainless steel
tanks for fermentation. Fermented cool at around
55°F, the juice retained its freshness and purity
that it had started with. Minimal racking post
fermentation and blending for balance were the
final steps in producing this Pinot Gris.
FOOD PAIRINGS
Enjoy this Pinot Gris with grilled halibut or a simple
oven roasted chicken and vegetables. This wine
pairs exceptionally well with an unobstructed view
of the ocean and good company.
