Cloudline Pinot gris 06 "is 'overseen' by Domaine Drouhin Oregon's wine maker, Veronique Boss-Drouhin" says the Statesman Journal's Robert Mayfield. He further describes the wine as "Peach, melon, lemon aromas lead to flavors of pretty much the same, with a touch of green apple. It's lean, slightly grassy, with a tart note of green spice, and excellent acidity. The perfect wine to relax with after mowing the lawn."

Peach, melon, lemon aromas lead to flavors of pretty much the same, with a touch of green apple. It's lean, slightly grassy, with a tart note of green spice, and excellent acidity.

A rush of citrus fruits and white flowers, both in the nose and on the palate, combine to make this a wine of pure pleasure. With excellent texture and a strong lift from the acidity, it suggests food pairings with every sip. Try it with most shellfish, cheeses, ceviche, sushi, and spicy cuisine such as Thai and Indian.
