Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A great pinot gris, with typicity. Enjoy with pan seared filet of sole. Tasted Nov 2016 - @jonsteeves rated 89/100
Douglas McMillan rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Bright pale straw in colour, with aromas of young apricot, yellow apple, white flowers, and a little minerality and lemon. The taste is bright and clean and echoes the aromas nicely. Great acidity and a long tart apple finish. Not a boring Pinot Gris. Nice work from Oregon.
Craig Kuziemsky rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Offers floral notes on the nose with pear, apple and grapefruit flavors on the palate. The flavors blend nicely to finish with a hint of cream.
Cherie Cole rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Stone fruit and green apple on the nose and palate. Crisp and bright - would pair well with chicken or cream sauces. Tasted November 27, 2016.
This 100% Pinot Gris from Oregon is quite possibly the best summer aperitif wine yet and it can double as a great companion to seafood. The wine has a refreshing acidity with green plum, white pear, peach and honeydew flavours followed through with a lingering creamsicle finish. It just keeps opening up the longer you sip it. - Community Wine Reviews
