• The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 91 points

  September 18, 2020 - Retail $25. I have to admit that I get more than a bit giddy when I see "Pinot Gris" on the label. More often than not, it means that the wine has been made not in the, at least at times, insipid Italian style, but rather in the richer, Alsatian style. Full disclosure: I studied in Alsace and have much more than a "penchant" for the wines from the region. Light straw color, peach, pear, apricot, and considerable salinity on the nose bode goodness. While the palate might not be as rich and unctuous as my favorite Gris from Alsace, this is a lovely wine: tart, balanced, delicious. thedrunkencyclist.com
