Profile & Story
Farmed on Long Meadow Ranch's Anderson Valley Estate in Mendocino County. Producer's growing-season note (2023 vintage): a cool, late spring pushed harvest later than usual, with Pinot Gris ripening after the valley's Pinot Noir; the delayed timeline produced grapes with balanced acidity and vibrant flavors.
Tasting Notes
“The Pinot Gris opens with a clear, refined, elegant, and open bouquet with floral notes intertwined with ripe, concentrated, and fresh lemons and yellow-skinned stone fruit, plus fresh blood orange aromas. Round and very energetic on the palate, this is a clear and crystalline Pinot Gris with a tight, enormously fresh and even piquant as well as stimulating finish.” – Stéphane Vivier (note: producer's tasting note is published for the 2023 vintage; this list's printed vintage is 2021, same wine/label.)
Pairing Recommendation
White fish, shellfish, cheese and honey; also pairs with an early spring salad.
