Sperling Vineyards Pinot Gris 2018
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaIt's been a few years since we've tasted the straight-up pinot gris from Sperling. In the last few years, it's been diverted into the striking, skin-contact Amber Pinot Gris (thankfully still released this year). This organic and biodynamic certified gris comes from higher altitude estate blocks, was fermented and aged briefly in stainless with no MLF. Crisp green apple, Asian pear, lemon pith, and soapy pear blossom on the tight, snappy palate, finishing clinically clean and straight. For those who like their gris squeaky clean and fresh. Drink this summer.Tasted: 25 March 2020Tasted by: Treve Ring & Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $17.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
