It is a cold January day in South Carolina, but as you can see in the photo below, the sun is shining brightly thru my window. There are no clouds in the sky and I can almost imagine that Spring is on the way. J Pinot Gris California is the perfect match for my imagination.
This Pinot Gris has bright crisp flavors of lemon, peach, apple and pear. I note some minerality from start to finish and I think it is a little more tangy than the Oregon Pinot Gris wines that I have been drinking. This is just the right beverage for my late afternoon musings.
The grapes for this wine are from Lodi (62%), Clarksburg (17%) and the Russian River Valley (21%) and the wine has 13.5% alcohol. I have been buying it at Costco for several months at $11.99.
In general, I cannot say this Pinot Gris is as good as the Willamette Valley Pinot Gris I regularly buy, but it sure is great today.
SC Wine Joe does not give a numerical rating to white wines.
