Ripe flavors of mango, melon. Medium weight, very slight viscosity, low-med acid, and nice finish of green apple and honey. Good QPR for ~$10. (1455 views) | | | Tasted by OregonWineGeeks on 5/7/2013 & rated 89 points: This Pinot Gris is silvery with a touch of yellow. The nose is fresh pears and stone fruit. The palate show a lovely sweet fruit with balanced acid middle and soft finish. This should be a lovely wine for the hot summer days and light fare. (1767 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 4/9/2013: more tropical and stone fruit than the grass of the northern Gris. Finishes with that hint of Gris sweetness. (1735 views) | | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 2/25/2013: Tropical and fruit, a rather mineral seriousness that is unexpected. Has the chunky back end of Gris that I am not a huge fan of. But works it out for around $15. (1778 views) | | | Tasted by BlancdeBlanc on 12/14/2012 & rated 88 points: Aroma: crisp, acidic Palate: honeysuckle, bitter almond, tropical fruit - maybe papaya or guava. I don't usually care for pinot gris, but I liked this one. (1701 views) |
| Foris 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) |
