Spierhead Pinot Gris Golden Retreat Vineyard 2015

East Kelowna Slopes, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAn impressive line of grapefruit acidity lifts this 2015 pinot gris, one of the hottest (read heaviest) vintages on record in the Okanagan Valley. From Summerland's Golden Retreat Vineyard, this carries creamy yellow apples, pear and spicy melon. Whole cluster pressing gives a riff of texture before a gentle wave of heat on the finish.Tasted: 01 July 2016Tasted by: Prices:
