MERCER Columbia Valley Pinot Gris 2007

kennuncorked Tasting Notes

Appearance:
With the glass tilted, the wine is transparent with a pale gold color that moves to narrow water white rim.

Nose/Aromas:
Clean with a hint of honey, lychee and peach. Revisiting the wine there seems to be pronounced peach aromas.

Palate:
Dry, light bodied low intensity of fruit characteristics that hints of grapefruit and a slight hint of honey and peach. There no tannins and medium minus mouthwatering acidity although the wine is not flabby. The alcohol level (13.0%) seems well integrated into the wine because there is no apparent sensation of alcohol burn.

Finish:
Clean and short in length.

Cost:
Approximate retail price: US$15.00.

Producers Notes:

Classic melon, peach and mineral aromas and flavors are the hallmark of Pinot Gris grown in the Columbia Valley. (www.mercerwine.com)
