92 Points & Editors’ Choice – Wine Enthusiast

Our 2023 Pinot Gris was awarded a 92-point score and Editors’ Choice from Wine Enthusiast Magazine:

“Always a standard bearer, the latest Pinot Gris from Elk Cove is excellent. Fresh-grated lemon zest and orange blossom aromas are accented by a wee bit of wet slate. The wine, which was whole-cluster pressed and cold fermented in small stainless steel tanks, possesses flavors ranging from grapefruit lightly sprinkled in sugar to a green apple gummy bear.” — Michael Alberty

This review will be published in the November 2024 issue of Wine Enthusiast Magazine and at wineenthusiast.com

Wine Enthusiast’s team of reviewers blind taste more than 24,000 wines from across the globe every year.

Michael Alberty reviews wines from Washington, Oregon and Canada. Michael Alberty writes about wine for The Oregonian, the oldest continuously published newspaper on the U.S. west coast.
