WINE DESCRIPTION

Bowers Harbor Pinot Grigio is a crisp, unoaked white wine from Michigan state. The grapes used for this wine are sourced from the region around Grand Traverse County, offering a leaner expression of the grape. The wine is fermented to completion at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks with a short period of maturation in inert vessels prior to bottling. The resulting wine is fully dry, crisp and refreshing with notes of citrus and green apple, making it a perfect choice for warm weather or as an aperitif.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Bowers Harbor Pinot Grigio is a delightful white wine with a crisp and refreshing character.It displays a pale straw color in the glass, with aromas of citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, along with hints of green apple and pear. On the palate, the wine is completely dry with flavors that mirror the nose. Zesty lemon, juicy pear, and a touch of minerality burst on the tongue. The finish is clean and invigorating, leaving a pleasant citrusy aftertaste.

ORIGINS

Winery: Bowers Harbor

Region: Michigan

Michigan is a state in the Great Lakes region of the United States, located in the north-central part of the country. Michigan has a long history of winemaking, with the first vineyards planted in the early 1800s, but plantings are currently on the rise. The first vineyards in Michigan were planted in the early 1800s by French settlers. The state's wine industry grew steadily until Prohibition in the 1920s, when it was almost completely wiped out. After Prohibition, the industry slowly began to rebuild, and by the 1970s, there were over 100 wineries in the state. Today, Michigan is home to over 200 wineries, making it the sixth-largest wine-producing state in the US.
