Haywire Pinot Gris Raised in Concrete 2013

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFermentation in stainless followed by six months rest in concrete has preserved the pure orchard fruit and fresh acidity, while plumping this medium bodied wine with stony complexities. Bone dry but cushioned with ripe Asian pear, apple, grapefruit and a fragrant orange/strawberry blossom note. Stony, herbal thorn spice on the finish; a much more savoury style of pinot gris, and one well-suited to herb trussed poultry or citrus salted white fish.Tasted: 22 March 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
