Fort Berens Small Lot Pinot Gris 2024

Lillooet, British Columbia, CanadaJust when hope dims for a wine that exceeds expectations for its price, this Fort Berens Small Lot Pinot Gris begins with a burst of electricity and freshness that evokes Friuli and Vancouver Island. The bright acidity and mineral, stony notes are revitalizing, and immediately suggest a shellfish pairing. Pears, quince, melon, and even some passion fruit enrich the texture without making the wine feel heavy. Best of all, it's entirely Lillooet fruit from the estate Dry Creek Vineyard and Winch Spur Vineyard in Lytton. This is special.Tasted: 03 December 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
