RoxyAnn Pinot gris 08

Winery: RoxyAnn

...a brilliant straw-colored Pinot gris that offers expansive aromas of ripe pears, peach and grapefruit with bright accents of floral, tangerine, mango and honeysuckle. On the palate, it exhibits a creamy, balanced mouthfeel with bright citrus acidity that accents long, enticing mineral notes in the finish.

Previous Vintage Notes:

Wine & Spirits rated the 2004 92 points and says: "A beautiful 2004, this classic Oregon pinot gris blends southern Oregon and Willamette Valley sources, at once round and racy, perfectly composed. This wine leads with beguiling scents of the sea, set against the bright green aromas of youth. Its firm, green apple flavors are edged with leesy elements and a fresh, talc-like acidity. Then it finishes crisp, with a snappy, apple skin bitterness that gives the wine density and length. Within a few months it's likely to become even more complex and complete; then serve with spot prawns."
