Blue Mountain Pinot Gris 2015

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaTwo French clones of 29-year-old vines were whole cluster pressed, with 40 percent fermented and aged on the lees for seven months in three year old French oak and the remainder in stainless, racked from lees. The sum equals the parts: some crisp, tight, green apple and sour lemon fruit swirling with fuller, riper pear and green melon, all on a leesy base, to a sour finish. At this youthful stage, the elements are not in unison, though it should knit with another year or two.Tasted: 04 January 2017Tasted by: Prices:
