MILBRANDT VINEYARDS
Traditions 2007 Pinot Gris, Washington State
Our Pinot Gris comes from three sites in the Columbia Valley region of Eastern Washington. A significant portion of the grapes come from our 452-acre Evergreen Vineyard located on a bluff above the Columbia River. The site features geologically young soils on top of ancient volcanic basalt beds. The top layers of earth were deposited by floods the most recent occurring 10,000 years ago - carried down from the high elevations of Montana, Idaho and Washington.
Pinot Gris is subtle. It doesn't assault with exotic fruit, viscosity or oak. Rather, it caresses the palate with nuanced flavors and a fine, elegant texture. Our 2007 has a fresh, clean nose of flowers, Granny Smith Apples and Anjou pears. The flavors are delicate, yet decisive. The finish is bright and minerally.
