Averill Creek Vineyard Pinot Gris 2009
Cowichan Valley, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, CanadaThis one hundred percent pinot gris from Vancouver Island wowed the pre-dinner crowd on Saturday night and it was a perfect foil to the mini cup of chanterelle risotto appetizer. Razor thin but with stone fruit, lemon oil and honey aromas and flavours that give it enough weight to carry its juicy, melon mineral finish.Tasted: 17 October 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | private wine stores, winery direct |
