If tropical cashews were a thing that’s what this wine gives and I’m not mad at it.

I know why this is 2011... Too expensive and requires serious hand selling! Honey, lychee, glycerin , passion fruit.. Rocks!

Very herby, also tastes like the pith of a lime or grapefruit. Very dry. Pairs well with a sweeter creamy cheese. I think I’m allergic to this.

Ripping good Gris! Crisp, floral, tropical. Almost everything I like in a PG. Compare with higher priced Oregon and even Alsatian offerings.
