(676 views) | | | Tasted by gjetson on 5/8/2020 & rated 90 points: Seriously good value white that has enough acidity to make it very food friendly. Some nice tropical fruit notes, hint of lemon peel. It's a good go-to white table wine. I'm giving it an extra point for the QPR. (1051 views) | | | Tasted by Wine301 on 4/4/2020 & rated 88 points: Pale straw in appearance. On the nose, apricot, white peach, honeydew, kiwi, green apple and some minerality like wet crushed gravel. On the palate, grapefruit, lemon zest, sourdough and minerality. Off dry, medium plus acidity, no tannin, med alcohol, silky mouthfeel with medium body. Medium plus finish, longer than I expected. No signs of oak aging. Overall, balanced, smooth and very nice. I believe it would go with many dishes but we paired it with chicken noodle soup and bread. I recommend it and we'll buy another bottle.

| Acrobat Winery Producer websitePinot GrisFrom Pinot Gris Wikipedia entry:
Wines made from the Pinot gris vary greatly and are dependent on the region and wine making style they are from. Alsatian Pinot gris are medium to full bodied wines with a rich, somewhat floral bouquet. They tend to be spicy in comparisons with other Pinot gris. While most Pinot gris are meant to be consumed early, Alsatian Pinot gris can age well. German Pinot gris are more full-bodied with a balance of acidity and slight sweetness. In Oregon the wines are medium bodied with a yellow to copper-pink color and aromas of pear, apple, and/or melon. In California, the Pinot gris are more light bodied with a crisp, refreshing taste with some pepper and arugula notes. The Pinot grigio style of Italy is a light-bodied, often lean wine that is light in color with sometimes spritzy flavors that can be crisp and acidic. Although this wine can be very sweet, it will begin to lose its acidity when it is nearly ripe.
Pinot gris is considered an "early to market wine" that can be bottled and out on the market within 4–12 weeks after fermentation.

Tarte tatinUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.Oregon Oregon Wine, Oregon Wineries (Oregon Wine Board)Oregon* |
