BuyTHE VINEYARD
Our historic Chamisal Vineyard, the first planted in the Edna Valley in 1973, is nestled between the Santa Lucia Mountains and the cool Pacific Ocean on California’s Central Coast. The long hang time promised by the site develops intense flavor in our grapes, the perfect start to distinctive wines that are flavorful and complex.
TASTING NOTES
Our Pinot Gris starts with a bouquet of springtime blossoms and delicate spice notes, followed by vivid flavors of sliced apples and a wonderfully crisp finish.
ACCOLADES/PRESS
91 points – The Connoisseurs’ Guide: "This spicy, well-fruited offering shows a bit of the richness that we associate with its Alsatian cousins, and its inviting mix of sweet citrus, peaches and honeysuckle is touched with a faint kiss of sweetness. It is comparatively full on the palate and its nicely placed acidity contributes a long and cleansing finish. We would serve this wine with lighter poultry preparations or with sausages like old-fashioned bratwurst or the newer chicken-apple delights."
90 points – The Wine Enthusiast: "What a great Pinot Gris. Barrel-fermented, it shows a toasty, creamy smokiness to the citrus, nectarine, fig and vanilla flavors, with that Edna Valley acidity that’s so clean and refreshing. Absolutely delicious, it’s rich and substantial enough to stand in as an interesting alternative to Chardonnay."
