Mayhem Pinot Gris 2022
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom Oliver's Ryegrass vineyard, and vines planted in 2009, this year's Mayhem PG was whole bunch pressed in stainless, with 16% spending time in barriques. Post-ferment, this spent 5 months on lees prior to blending and bottling. Ripe pear, yellow apple, orchard blossom is shaped with a tangerine pith acidity, which lingers on an orange sherbet finish. Bright and zippy, if a bit too made (that ascorbic edge), this will doubtlessly work well with fragrant hot pot or summer salads on the patio.Tasted: 19 June 2023Tasted by: Prices:BC | $18.36 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
