Product Description

The 2013 growing season at our Chalice Vineyard in the foothills of the Oregon Coastal Range started out with near ideal conditions lasting through August and into early September. A rain filled late September presented some challenges but transitioned into a somewhat dry, cool October bringing some relief to winegrowers around the state. Most of our Pinot gris was ripe and harvested in beautiful condition prior to the rain. The grapes, slightly lower than normal in sugar, came to the winery with beautiful citrus, pear and floral flavors and aromas. Consequently this wine has lower than normal alcohol content, clean acidity and vibrant aromas and flavors. The harvest was one of the earliest in Iris Vineyards history starting on September 26th and ending on the 28th.
