Richly complex, this is not a simple sipping Pinot Gris. The aromatics are floral and fruit-centered, with plenty of jasmine, ripe pear, and toasted almond. The palate is surprisingly rich and complex, with lanolin, beeswax, and sweet stone fruit flavours. Textured and rich with candied ginger, honeyed pear, and apricot to finish. —C.P.
What We Thought: This elegant wine is done in an almost Alsatian style and is filled with honeyed
stone fruit with a rich, viscous palate of ripe apricot and a bright lingering finish.
A lovely, delicate white, this blooms with fresh apricot blossom, nectarine, and honeysuckle accents while gliding along the crisp finish. Drink now. —T.F.
