Lake Breeze Pinot Gris 2017
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSouth African winemaker Garron Elmes has been making clean, fresh wines at Lake Breeze for just under a quarter century. It’s easy to be fruit driven when you are working with Naramata fruit, and it’s been his goal to take that fruit and get it into the bottle without a lot of fuss since the beginning. The 2017 is fresh and bright on entry with green pear, peach and green apple aromas with a stony mineral peachy palate with a hint of honey butter — best with shellfish or fish tacos.Tasted: 15 March 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $20.90 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA wine shops |
