Pinot Gris/Grigio from Willamette Valley, Oregon: King Estate Domaine Pinot Gris 2007


Color : Pale straw.

Aroma: Tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, melon, and spice.

Flavor: Citrus, apple, peach, with a spicy mineral finish.

Mouthfeel: Incredible balance between fruit and acid, crisp and clean, yet smooth and round.

A cool pinot gris, this has high-toned aromas of passionfruit with a hint of spearmint. Bright and mouthwatering, its citrus marmalade flavors are bolstered by leesy notes. It has the right cut for shrimp pasta with créme fraîche. Organic grapes.
