2008 Montinore Estate Pinot Gris $13


With the weather warming up, its time to start trading the red wine glass for the white. Here is a great one to try hailing from Oregon.

2008 Montinore Estate Pinot Gris

It is very aromatic with notes of fresh ripe pear, yellow apple and a pleasant floral/herbal accent. On the palate it bursts into flavors of ripe honeydew melon with... hints of mango overlaying ripe apple/pear character. The long finish is dry, fresh and crisp with a sweet/tart apple essence and distinct mineral qualities. All this for around $13 a bottle. Give it a try and let us know what you think.
