Pinot Grigio

Pinot Grigio Wine Details
Price: $14.00 per bottle

Description: The light copper color is reminiscent of the richer Pinot Grigio grapes found in the Lombardy region of Italy and Alsace of France allowing for the true color of the grape to be expressed. This rich, true color is present without spending anytime on the skins! This E2 Pinot Grigio gives a blast of exotic fruits which exite the nose, fills the mouth with the tropical fruits of pineapple, mangos and the citrus tastes of oranges, tangerines and a hint of lime. The finish ends with the buttery essence of pears………and this was just our first year…………WOW!!!

Varietal Definition
Pinot Grigio/Gris:
Pinkish-white variety producing a very crisp white wine. Grown in Oregon, the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, and more and more in California, it shows promise for other cool climates. Also known as Tokay d'Alsace in France, Rulander in Germany, and Pinot Grigio in Italy.
