This Pinot Gris from the esteemed Temperance Hill Vineyard presents a captivating pale straw hue, indicative of its cool-climate origins. The bouquet is a sophisticated interplay of ripe pear, white peach, and a whisper of honeysuckle, underscored by a subtle minerality. On the palate, it reveals a medium-bodied structure with a vibrant acidity that enlivens the stone fruit core, while hints of ginger and wet stone add complexity. The finish is elegantly prolonged, with a saline edge that speaks to its terroir. This wine exemplifies the nuanced expression of Oregon Pinot Gris, offering both precision and depth.
