Item # 44626 750mL

The special location of the Temperance Hill Vineyard inspired this wine whose grapes were picked in two separate passes, about two weeks apart. The first pass allows for great acidity and structure, while the second pass adds concentrated ripe fruit and richness. Fermented and aged in old Burgundy barrels, on the lees without battonage. The rich tropical fruit and spices on the nose are tamed by the acidity and structure making these medium bodied and with a golden color. Pair with cod in spiced coconut milk.

Pinot Gris

Pinot Grigio is an Italian synonym for the French Pinot Gris variety, but many more people have had Pinot Grigio than a Pinot Gris. At its most basic level, the grape produces varietals that are smooth and easy to drink, and perfect with a huge range of dishes that just beg to be paired with a fresh white wine. There is an entire spectrum of Pinot Gris/Grigio, however, the best of them being subtly aromatic and deeply colored, with formidable structures. Most of Italy's Pinot Grigio is grown in...

Oregon

The largest wine region in Oregon is the Willamette Valley, lying between the cities of Portland and Eugene and home to most of Oregon’s wineries. As it does not have one homogeneous climate, it has been broken up into several different AVAs. In the best of them, the perfect amounts of wind, rain, sun exposure, and altitude combine to give Pinot Noir the warm days and cool nights it needs in order to thrive. Combine that with good drainage and poor soils, and you’ve got the perfect environment...
