2020 Sheldrake Point Pinot Gris

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Wednesday, July 20, 2022 - Honeydew melon, peach, and mango with grassy notes, but I am also happy to find some ginger, volcanic ash, and some minerals, which makes this pretty nice. Another CT reviewer talked about this wine having the Alsatian Pinot Gris “mustiness” (as opposed to Italian light and crisp Pinot Grigio) and, having just been to Alsace a week ago and tasted several Alsatian Pinot Gris there (and liking them very much), I have to agree. It has a proper thick, oily texture too. This can compete with similarly-priced version from Alsace. I’m impressed. Mostly dry, just .5% alcohol remaining.
