2009 La Cruz Vineyard Pinot Gris

Full in flavor, minerality, fruit and honey. A true homeage to the Gran Crus of Alsace, this slightly off dry wiine is the result of careful vineyard practices. We kept the yields very low in the vineyard and allowed the fruit to hang just a little longer so that we could make a magnificent aromatic wine with great body and lingering sweetness, perfect to complement a light summer meal.

Fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks for 7 months, this wine retains its delighfully fresh and lively fruit flavors. Sweet spring days are presented on the nose: pretty floral notes are accented with fresh, ripe peaches. Apricot and nectarine flavors tango on the palate, followed by our signature minerality. A versatile wine, this Pinot Gris may be consumed by itself as an aperitif or with a palate of saffron-accented mussels, seared scallops, spicy Thai dishes or a caramelized onion tart.
