Great, dry aromatic white for the springtime! White flowers, citrus aromas. Fresh oranges and nice acid. Some dairy notes too. Excellent with my salmon too. #petaluma #petalumawindgap

Not exactly Alsace, but really well done for an off dry domestic Pinot Gris. 2009 was the last vintage for the off dry style. Perfect with the Honeybaked Ham on Christmas!

Super crisp, great acidity, lots of melon. Probably awesome with oysters.

Pale golden. Overripe melon dominates the nose with the help of honeysuckle. Melon, honeydew, and pineapple on the palate with a nice, hay-like, transition to mid. Follows through the finish with a smooth, fuller bodied (malo?), and off-dry mouthfeel. Balanced acidity through out. A unique pinot gris, almost comes out like a Viognier. Too sweet for my liking, and could have more minerality, but a well crafted, creative and thoughtful wine nonetheless.
