Tantalus Pinot Gris Stoneridge Vineyard Oregon 2024
Ribbon Ridge, Willamette Valley, Oregon, United StatesThis 2024 Pinot Gris (a first for Tantalus) names the vineyard on the front label, and is Tantalus' series of Crafted in BC (CIBC) wines from the 2024 vintage. This comes from Stoneridge Vineyard in Willamette's Ribbon Ridge, a special selection of organic, own-rooted vines planted in 1985. The fruit was pressed on site, with juice transported overnight to their East Kelowna winery for a partial native ferment in older barriques, puncheons, and stainless. It remained 3 months on lees, with partial MLF, before bottling. Fragrant pear, white grapefruit pith and peel stream throughout this sleek, finely textured wine, with a river stone underlay, and lingering humming pithiness. A lick of anise adds to the allure of this vibrant, food-friendly white.Tasted: 18 May 2025Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $20.87 | 750ml | winery direct, select private wine shops and restaurant |
