A very acceptable blanc, although a tiny bit too tangy for me. Clean and light. 4 Notes

The Brajkovich family’s 2009 Pinot Gris finds a fine balance between sweetness, acidity and alcohol, offering just enough of each. Melon flavors are tinged with almondskin and a lingering touch of musky spice on the finish. Fine on its own, or pair it with dishes that are slightly sweet (shrimp) or spicy. 1 Note

A change in style from the soft, round version produced in 2004, this is a light, fresh, virtually dry (7g/L residual sugar) Riesling. Strident citrus notes on the nose mingle with hints of mineral, while the palate delivers crisp green apple and citrus flavors. 1 Note

This one's got it all. Fullness, richness, complexity, with a good, crisp acidity to hold it all together. It's got the lushness reminiscent of an oaked California Chardonnay, with the restaint of a very good Alsatian. The flavor goes through two or three different phases on the tongue. A lovely wine. 15 Notes

Shows wonderfully ripe, round character in its peach and tangerine aromas and flavors, yet also offers good complexity and length. There’s a smoky, fumé note to the aromas and lingering citrus notes on the finish. 1 Note

Despite sufficient residual sugar to render it off-dry, this Pinot Gris retains a slightly tart, lean character. Underripe stone fruit and pineapple flavors lack richness and generosity, ending on a tart, citrusy note. 1 Note

Light toast notes over pears, framed by citrusy acidity. The lemon-and-lime flavors come to the fore on the elegant finish, prolonging it. Not a fruity blockbuster; rather a model of restraint and class. 1 Note
