Saturna Island Pinot Gris 2006

Southern Gulf Islands, British Columbia, CanadaSimilar to the '05 the latest Saturna Gris is fresher with green apple skin and mineral notes but with a big dose of garlic/sulphur. Often a switch to screwcap can cause this problem if the sulphur regime is not adjusted. It will need plenty of airing prior to sipping to release the underlying chalky fresh green apple flavours.Tasted: 14 July 2007Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
