Willamette Valley Vineyards Pinot Gris 2006
Pinot Gris/Grigio
from Willamette Valley, Oregon
winemaker's notes:
Number 60 on the Wine.com 100 of 2007!
"Crisp, authoritative, dry and racy... very fresh and refreshing, beautifully rendered."
-Wine Enthusiast
Bright, fruity, crisp style. Pretty aromas
of fresh young pear, honey, starfruit,
honeydew, and flower. Bold and crisp
mouth feel with generous flavors
of pear, mineral, melon, and spice,
interwoven with well-balanced acidity.
The Pinot Blanc, picked very ripe, adds
emollient mouthfeel, and contributes
to the Alsatian style. While the Muscat
adds flowery sweetness, the barrel
fermented portions of the Auxerrois
add a kiss of toast and richness.
The quintessential match with salmon.
Wonderful with cheese, shellfish, chicken,
salads and white fish.
