WillaKenzie Estate Pinot Gris Cork-Free 2005

With a lovely green-gold color, this Pinot Gris offers generous aromatics of honeydew melon, pear and tropical fruit. The pleasingly rich mouthfeel is dominated by flavors of ripe pear, peach, mango, papaya, pineapple and a hint of grapefruit. The ample flavors and lush texture are nicely framed by the wine's balanced acidity. Summer salads and cold cuts, grilled fresh salmon, lobster or crab in a light cream, Asian foods and curries – all will pair beautifully with this delicious wine. Try it also with a rich, blue cheese like Stilton, or just by itself as a refreshing aperitif. Serve well-chilled.
