  Elk Cove Vineyards Pinot Gris Willamette Valley 2007

  Snoothrank:

  We really like this wine. It's deep enough to satisfy those who want more than the usually light pinot grigio wines. It offers a very soft hint of spice and fruity that is more robust than most. Great with chicken based salads.

  When we recently tasted our way through Oregon, the Roosevelt stood out among its high-end peers.

Costly, maybe, but worth it!    (hide)

  You might try Beaujolais, light, fruity and strawberry flavors, but totally ... liked. I am also fond of Elk Cove PN from Oregon. Mad Housewife from CA has some good (to my taste) inexpensive wines. I like their Merlot.

  Very crisp wine with flavors of lemons, peach, mango and pineapple. Very crisp and clean, with a mineral streak. Nice

Read moreThree wines priced just right for the summer Our friends at Wine.com are back ... the Pacific Northwest. Elk Cove Pinot Gris 2007 $14.99 Fragrant with soft spice tones accentuating the warm apple fruit on the nose. Then turning rich and full with lovely tropical fruit tones that ride the voluptuous mid-palate to a bright, refreshing finish. This is great for summer sipping and casual dining! A fun Argentine blend for grilling and chilling! Amalaya de Colome 2006 $11.99 This Malbec based blend is aromatic with notes of tobacco, cigar box, and exotic spices. The soft tannins on the palate add depth to the rich flavors of wild black raspberries, shaved chocolate and exotic tea, that lead to a rich, peppery, slightly rustic yet long finish. A balanced and supple Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon. Geyser Peak Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 $12.99 Solid and fresh with the red fruit typical of the Alexander Valley. Subtly infused with the vanilla and coconut traits of American oak that are melded to sweet cherry and red currant fruit that gain light notes of smoke and coffee on the finish. For less than $50 you can grab all three and let the summer fun continue. And don't forget to enroll in the Steward-Ship Program. You'll thank yourself this fall, at Thanksgiving, over the winter holiday, new years... it's a gift that keeps on giving!    (hide)

It is now quite fragrant with dusty notes and soft spice tones adding some complexity to the slightly baked apple fruit. Smells a bit quartzy/steely with a touch of spearmint and an insinuation of cheese rind. Nice round entry with a wave of sweet pear and light pineapple fruit supported by bright acids and tinted with just a hint of dried tropical fruits. The nice clean finish has a touch of minerality and lingering ripe fruit tones that show a hint more citrus character. A very flavorful and balanced example of Pinot Gris that seems as ideally suited for casually summer sipping as it does for enjoying at the table. I would like to serve this with a nice spinach salad with toasted nuts, Brie and cranberries or perhaps with some Halibut sautéed with capers and green olives or grilled shrimp wrapped in prosciutto! 90pts    (hide)
