Ponzi Vineyards’ pioneering plantings of Pinot Gris began in 1978, when this varietal was virtually unknown in the United States. Today, our goal remains the same: to vinify Pinot Gris with creamy texture, vibrant pear and apple flavors, and a bright finish.
Based on our commitment to finding the perfect match between varietal and climate, Pinot Gris is an obvious choice. A relative of Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris is perfectly suited to the climate and soils of the Willamette Valley.
Ponzi Pinot Gris is fermented entirely in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to create this crisp, lively wine that meets our highest standards of perfection and consistency.
