Erath 2009 Oregon Pinot Gris
The Palm Beach Post
A lemon-green color in the glass, this wine has an aromatic nose of exotic, tropical fruit, lime and apple. It’s fresh and very ripe in the mouth with a medium-body and a juicy, almost oily texture, balanced with a nice acidity. The finish is quick, clean and dry.
