A To Z Wineworks Pinot Gris 2020

The 2020 A to Z Wineworks Oregon Pinot Gris is a delightful straw color with expressive fruit aromas suggestive of Meyer lemon, white peach, apricot, honeydew melon, golden apple, lime zest, pink grapefruit and pear tart. Secondary floral and herbal notes like honeysuckle and fresh cut hay are close to follow. Broad on the palate, the modest acidity and alcohol make for a zingy, tangy, lip-smacking, delicious wine. The midpalate is exceptionally juicy, with hints of quince, dried apricots, grapefruit and grilled pineapple ushering in a lengthy clean, grass and lemon finish. A perfectly quaffable wine, the 2020 A to Z Wineworks Oregon Pinot Gris is refreshing and versatile, pairing exceptionally well with a wide array of foods.

Pairs well with backyard BBQ, seafood, pork, roast vegetables, an order of fries, asparagus (yes, asparagus), a bagel with cream cheese and lox, lemon chicken, clams casino, sauerbraten, hot & sour soup, Thanksgiving leftovers, dim sum, that great Cubano sandwich you always get at the food truck owned by that guy with the cool beard, brioche, hot wings, cauliflower purée, seared steelhead with fried leeks and fresh herbs, bánh mi, or a bag of Swedish fish.
