Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris Wine Details
Price: $14.95 per bottle

Description: This crisp, stainless-steel fermented Pinot Gris has a touch of chardonnay and highlights of green apple and lemony citrus, with notes of honeysuckle and hazelnut. Lively acidity surrounds the continuing green apple and citrus on the palate, resulting in a satisfying finish. This is an any-occasion wine for raw and grilled seafood, chilled summer soups and oysters for the winter holiday celebrations.

Pinot Grigio/Gris:
Pinkish-white variety producing a very crisp white wine. Grown in Oregon, the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, and more and more in California, it shows promise for other cool climates. Also known as Tokay d'Alsace in France, Rulander in Germany, and Pinot Grigio in Italy.
