2015 Pinot Gris
Greets you from the glass with big aromatics of nectarine and Honeycrisp apple alongside ethereal notes of guava and cherry blossom. A vibrant acidity lends freshness to a sweet ambrosia salad of ripe pear and mouth-watering ruby red grapefruit. Ends richly with fine-spun notes of spice cake and candied ginger.
