This wine is from the 2008 vintage and is on the coat tails of a very successful 2007. My usual problem with Pinot Gris does not enter the equation here. Rather than be flabby and sweet this wine is more linear with exact acid and very well balanced.
The wine displays nice tropical fruit and a bit of spice on the nose with a lusciously rich textural palate and held together with perfect acid balance. There are apricots and lemon peel with a small hint of rivers edge on the palate.
What I really like about this wine is its complexity. It has a beautifully fragrant aroma with a body to match. The ideal woman one may say! Wine Vault Rating (WVR) 90 points.
