Review:

Always a remarkable example of Oregon Pinot gris, it has the creamy citrus flavors and vibrant acidity this wine is known for. Aromatic honeysuckle and orange flowers enhance the grapefruit and white peach. Tangerine zest and minerals add lift to the finish.

Owen Roe Pinot gris Crawford-Beck Vineyard always sells out rapidly. David O'Reilly makes a very small amount of this wine. Don't wait to order.

2007 Vintage Tasting Notes

The Owen Roe Pinot gris is shockingly tropical on the nose given the cooler 2007 vintage. Lush ripe passion fruit and hints of vibrant lime curd make for a mouth filling Pinot Gris. The finish is full of lingering white honeysuckle blossoms and a very slight minerality evoked from the Eola Amity origins of the fruit. This is a stunningly atypical expression of Pinot Gris.

Very limited, less than 100 cases produced. A rich, fragrant wine, all finished in stainless, it is crisp on the finish and Alsatian in style.

This Pinot Gris would pair beautifully with seared scallop, avocado and mango salad.
