Pinot Grigio is a star bright, light straw color and has a wonderfully expressive nose of pear, peach and apricot. This is a delicious wine with a forward surge of lemon zest and pine nut flavors. On the palate, there are flavors of citrus, fig, pear, pineapple and a faint underlying hint of oak. Barrel fermentation brings a full body to the entire mid-palate. Notes of honeysuckle and orange marmalade close out the finish. This wine is delightful to drink now, and will continue to be at its peak through the end of 2008.

- A golden straw color with aromas of fresh figs, honeysuckle, and melon. Creamy texture surrounds flavors of pear, fig, smoke and spices such as cardamom and allspice. The wine finishes dry and long with a persistent touch of lime, ginger, and almond.
