This pale straw colored Pinot Gris has generous floral, pear and tropical fruit aromas. This comes from pressing the whole grape clusters instead of individual grapes minimizing skin contact and extenuating the delicate floral flavors. The wine is easy to love because it is balanced beautifully and shows zesty citrus and granny smith apple flavors that lead to a lingering Asian pear finish.

| Serve our Pinot Gris chilled while relaxing on the deck or with fresh grilled fish, steamed clams, Asian stir-fry, sushi or calamari. This wine is very easy to enjoy. Don’t say I didn’t warn you! |
