Fetzer Pinot Grigio Valley Oaks 2017

This Pinot Grigio is clean and fresh, with a fruit-forward character and a crisp acid backbone. Vibrant aromas of mango, pear, orange spice, lemongrass and pineapple segue to an inviting palate of tropical fruit, apple, pear and orange citrus. A pleasing hint of minerality is underscored by a wonderfully round finish.

The bountiful warm days and cool nights that characterize California’s Mediterranean climate ensured ideal conditions for ripening our Pinot Grigio fruit to perfection. A warm mid-August harvest yielded ample ripe fruit, ideally suited to delivering vivid aromas and complex flavor in the glass.

Pairing
BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
The crisp acidity and bright tropical notes in our Pinot Grigio are an ideal complement to the silky texture and sweetly spicy top notes of honey and white pepper in this butternut squash soup.
