Spindrift Cellars Pinot Gris 07
Spindrift Cellars Pinot Gris 07 - Wine Enthusiast 90 points and "BEST BUY"
"This excellent Pinot Gris brings crisp, enticing flavors that perfectly mix pear skin, citrus and spice with a finish that somehow evokes coffee grounds and caramel. Huh? Don’t know how that happens, but what a riot of flavor in such a simple wine. Better yet, the alcohol rests at an unbelievable 12.5%—unheard of in the last two decades. Tart and juicy, this is as European as it gets in Oregon".
Spindrift Cellars Pinot gris 07, in the nose, is all crisp green apple, pear, grapefruit and hints of coconut; flavors are of white peach, pear, bright pineapple, tropical fruit, and there's a streak of lemon zest in the finish. This is a wine that finishes quite dry and crisp, a wine to have with foods like creamy pasta dishes, scallops, and shrimp. It's viscous and mouth coating.
