Joel Gott Oregon Pinot Gris 2017

Drink now or cellar for up to 5 years. Serve chilled.

Oregon’s cool climate Willamette Valley is the perfect location for making vibrant and flavoursome Pinot Gris wines. The grapes for this bottling are carefully selected from two of the region’s top appellations, Dundee Hills and Eola-Amity Hills, as well as a handful of other sites to create a complex, multi-layered expression of the Pinot Gris grape.

The grapes are harvested and sorted before being fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the typical character of the grape variety. The result is a mouthwatering fresh style of Pinot Gris which opens with intense lemon zest, grapefruit, and white peach notes. The first sip reveals a racy acidity with ripe stone fruit and melon notes with a pure, clean finish. A fantastic partner for all types of salads, fresh seafood, sushi, and spicy Asian dishes as well as creamy cheeses.

This delicious Oregon Pinot Gris is crafted by Joel Gott and his wife Sarah who started their own label in 1996 specialising in top quality American wines. The couple earned rave reviews from Robert Parker and Wine Spectator with their first wine, their Amador County Zinfandel. This success has driven them to seek out top quality vineyards in California, Washington and Oregon where they can source the very best fruit for their delicious all-American wines.
