Wine Review: This Pinot Gris from New Zealand opens with a pleasant green apple and pear like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a mild mineral infused Anjou pear with hints of white pepper. The finish is dry and its mild acidity and flavors linger nicely. This Pinot Gris would be a perfect offering for a wedding. It is versatile and a crowd pleaser and would pair well with chicken dishes. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: LOOK : Light Straw SMELL: A delightfully aromatic nose of fresh pears, Braeburn apple, melon, honey, and spice. TASTE: Fresh, crisp tropical fruit flavors on the palate with a generous mouthfeel. Elegant and supple, a wine that delivers lingering flavors of warm, spicy fruit and a bright, clean finish. EAT: An ideal wine by itself or paired with antipasto, fresh seafood, or Southeast Asian cuisine.
