| Community Tasting Notes (average 91 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 6 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by vinelouse on 10/21/2023 & rated 91 points: Deep golden colour. A bit shy on the nose. Good body weight and rich mouthfeel. Sweetness is well balanced by acidity. Spicy finish. Will develop with proper aging. (129 views) | | | Tasted by Rupert on 3/1/2021 & rated 87 points: After umpteen Weinbach pinot blancs and sylvaners, which have all been superb, we come to this, which ought to be better. And it's smoother, thicker, more alcoholic. But it's dull. There some spiciness on the nose, and it has a luxurious feel in the mouth, but give me the pb or the sylv please. (815 views) | | | Tasted by Grapetimescomin on 4/25/2020 & rated 91 points: Golden color, medium + body, full bodied white. Peach, nectar, honey on the nose. Full orange fruits, hint of vanilla bit of honey. Slightly sweet. Quite good. (920 views) | | | Tasted by Papies on 1/4/2020 & rated 91 points: From half bottle and very happy to have found it on the wine list of Birdsong, San Francisco .
Soft and floral, touch of an offdry side, nice ripeness of fruit, rounder, honey touches and very special wine with a character and tipicity. Very solid 91-92 (1270 views) | | | Tasted by Stefanos T. on 9/28/2019 & rated 93 points: Beautiful wine, full of sweet aromas of white fleshed fruit, honey, and white flowers. Nice round texture and sweetness on the palate but not to a level that you could call it of-dry. Easy drinking and immensely enjoyable. (1140 views) | | | Tasted by ericindc on 6/22/2019 & rated 93 points: White wine dinner outside DC (Wilds of Gaithersburg - outside DC): Very young, bright and energetic nose. Pretty. Still very young, but very powerful and vibrant with strong fruit flavors, and an interesting bitter note. Strong acid bite. Lots of upside. (1318 views) |

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.
