Pinot Gris 2022
$20
Varietal purity is on display here, offering classic Pinot Gris flavors with hints of citrus. pear, peach, and a touch of almond. Elegant texture on a broad mid-palate is set off by crisp natural acids. A lovely hint of lemon oil accents both the scent and the flavor. Creamy toasted lees and soft honey notes lead to lingering flavors, mouth filling – this one is something special.
Our 2022 vintage of Compton Pinot Gris was whole cluster pressed and fermented in both stainless steel and concrete egg tanks before blending and bottling. The blending of these two ferments yields bright fruit flavors and balanced acidity. Compton Pinot Gris is made with 100% Willamette Valley dry-farmed grapes from Compton Family Farms, Newton Creek Vineyard, Hoot & Howl Vineyard, and Mary’s Peak Vineyard.

2020 Tasting Note
A Gris with character and complexity, Matt draws a standout range of flavors and scents from the Pinot Gris grape.
Color is pale yellow with a hint of platinum in the core. Fleshy melon and white peach mingle with a hint of honey, richly textured and silky smooth. A rich and complete wine with balanced acidity, delicious for sipping or pair with light to medium flavored cuisine.

Pinot Gris 2019
It’s toasty and bright, with a faint resemblance to a leesy Champagne. Its toasted lees and candied-apple flavors are driven by a soaring high note of acidity that gives the wine a bracing, mouthwatering finish for seafood, like scampi.
