Bodega Lurton Pinot Gris 2011

Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaWe know pinot gris in BC so I'm not exaggerating when I say this is one of the best white wine buys on the planet. This winery has been grossly underrepresented in Canada for too many years but don't let that stop you from tracking down this delicious and affordable wine. The 2011 is a little lower in alcohol which only highlights its aromatic nose and pristine flavours of ripe yellow fruits all with a dash of lees for complexity. Balanced fresh and persistent it really over delivers for its price.Tasted: 02 June 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
