Description:
In addition to Pinot Gris, the wine contains small amounts of Rielsing (for acidity), Gewurztraminer (for aromatics) and Chardonnay (for mouthfeel). This wine has a rich, ripe, full palate with peach and honey notes. It is full-bodied with a touch of sugar rounding out the finish. Lifted aromatic pear aromas coupled with a hint of honey, apricots, lychees and spice. This wine would be great along-side a fruit salad drizzled in lemon and sugar on a warm day.
