Crisp pear and apples on the palate. Dry as a bone, super refreshing, and fantastic value. Would make a great fall white, with flavors that remind me of home.

Pale gold color. Light tears. Stone fruit, minerals, grass clippings on the nose. Green apple, grass fields, and grapefruit on the palate. Medium plus acid. Dry. Clean and refreshing.

Tropical and floral notes on the nose. The palate is crisp with citrus notes. There is a little grapefruit peel in the finish. Great with roasted chicken leg quarters.

“Chris makes a dazzling comeback with this rendition of his Pinot Gris, a follow-up to his highly-rated 2017 PG that took Gold at the San Francisco Wine Competition. Chris’s second round is seriously refreshing and bursting with tangy lemon, ripe peach and juicy melon that make this wine a little too easy to sip and even harder to put down. The wine blends grapes from three top-tier vineyards across the Willamette Valley giving it complex layers of flavors and aromas. Chill, open, and enjoy. It is an easy drinker on its own, but also has enough structure to pair with almost any food. Especially great with a roasted fresh picked beet salad, or spicy Thai food.” – Naked Wines

Fantastic nose of honeyed peach. The honey and peaches continue onto the palate that finishes with a pleasing acidity.
