$10 bottle, picked up on sale for $8.50. Straw yellow appearance. Cantaloupe, lime, honey dew, vanilla, green apple, a touch spicy aroma. Pretty nice body. Seems a bit sweet but that could just be the fruitiness. I don't think there's any residual sugars. Soft, refreshing, apple, apple, honey dew flavor. Acidity is pretty low. Drinks pretty damn good, especially at the price.

A little light for my taste. Very easy drinking, with flavors of peaches & cream from the oak aging. Maybe some orange flower in there too. But I'd like it more if the flavors weren't so subtle.

(Columbia Crest Grand Estates Pinot Gris Columbia Valley) Pale lemon yellow. Moderately aromatic with spice and pear. Palate is broad and medium bodied with a drawn out mouthfeel. Lingers on the finish. A pleasing, well made wine. 97.5% Pinot Gris, 2.5% Pinot Blanc. Fermented and aged in stainless steel. 13% alcohol. Recommended.

Straw yellow and very clear. Fresh and floral nose. Mineral and citrus flavor. Somewhat flat with a tart finish. Simple and crisp.

This had some oak, which isn't my style, but it's totally serviceable. Pear and vanilla.

Initial flavors of peach and apricots with just the right acidity. Drank with Maple Dijon grilled Salmon, perfect pairing.
