2004 Dundee Hills Pinot Gris
The 2004 Estate Grown Pinot Gris came from the top of the picturesque Black Family Vineyard. The wine is very fragrant, combining aromas of Asian pear, citrus blossom and honeycomb. The mouth feel is opulent, with the touch of residual sugar balancing the bright acidity. The fresh start gives way to ripe pear and peach flavors, with a lingering finish perfect for food pairing.
