Vin Gris de Pinot Noir

Vin Gris de Pinot Noir Wine Details
Price: $18.00 per bottle

Description: Following the French tradition of "saignée," a small portion of the historic HMR Estate Pinot juice was drawn off for this rosé, thus improving the ratio of skins to juice for the regular Adelaida Pinot Noir. Extremely popular on the Mediterranean coast, crisply styled Rosé wines complement lighter summer fare and offer an alternative to more substantial serious wines. Tasting of fresh strawberries, its buoyant uplifting fruitiness is tempered by balancing natural acidity and the mouthfulling texture of crème fraiche. The pale copper color is the result of light skin contact and the ripe pinot noir essence comes from the purity of free run juice. Take this delicious wine from your deck to your dining room table!
