Noble Pinot Gris
cr.grr—2018
This botrytised pinot gris has the heft and texture of a fortified wine, with the acidity and zip of a riesling. Noble rot, take a bow.

AMUSINGS - Uncanny. Unctuousness almost never coincides with spice and acidity. Here you are, wondering how this noble rot they speak of can fuse zest and firework smoke and tamarind with something that feels almost like maple syrup. A pinot gris that flows like Sherry, cosplaying as riesling? Bizarre. Bravo.
