Ponzi Vineyards Pinot Gris 2017 Review
Ponzi Vineyards is one of the pioneers of winemaking in Oregon. This Pinot Gris has a light golden color, aromas of ripe peaches, and a hint of white pepper. Flavors include peaches, green apples, and a bit of ginger. It’s dry and savory with lots of texture, and full-bodied for a Pinot Gris. If you like balanced Chardonnay and want to try something different, this is a solid choice. It’s very food-friendly and will pair with creamy and spicy dishes.
