Fresh bowl of cherries, raspberry compote, vanilla bean, white pepper, clove, mushroom. Excellent rounded acid/minimal smooth velvet tannin balance, medium bodied, juicy/silky texture, soft slightly tart finish. Highly aromatic, acid really shined. β 10 years ago

Deep sweet earth of WV held within. Berries and bright tart to levitate. Give it time to open up. Could have laid down much longer. Good now too. Maresh & Momtazi vineyards β 13 years ago

Kelleyβs Pinot Gris spends almost 3 weeks on the skins with foot treading once each day. You can imagine the resulting flavor explosion. Think cranberries and crushed wild flowers and a refreshing mineral water finish. This is the type of rosΓ© that can stand up to a full flavored dish! ππ β 6 years ago
