St Innocent Winery
Vitae Springs Vineyard Pinot Gris
Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Such a brilliant Pinot Gris. Powerful and dense, full bodied and phenolic. But there is a sense of freshness here with its spice character and bright orchard fruit. This is a beautiful wine that will work with a wide range of foods, from thanksgiving to southeast Asian.

One of the great Pinot Gris bottling in Oregon, the 2017 ‘Vitae Springs’ Pinot Gris by St. Innocent is a dazzling new release. On the nose this shows really good range from sourdough bread to ripe Japanese pear to grassy tones that all fill the bouquet. The palate shows incredible texture and tension, with gobs of mouth-watering acidity that excite. Harmonious throughout with ripe pear, starfruit and brioche flavors, this is a complete wine that is one of the best of its kind that I have ever sampled. Simply put, this wine is a masterpiece.
