WE HAVE SOLD OUT OF THE 2007 VINTAGE OF BOUCHAINE BACCHUS COLLECTION PINOT GRIS! WE WILL RELEASE THE 2008 VINTAGE TO OUR BACCHUS CLUB MEMBERS IN EARLY MARCH 2010, AND THROUGH THE TASTING ROOM FOLLOWING CLUB RELEASE. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE MADE THIS YET ANOTHER FAVORITE!

Tasting Pinot Gris is distinctly reminiscent of stepping into an fresh mountain stream as you stir the cool layer of leaves at your feet. Mineral, lime and citrus, green apple and honey flavors layer freshly together.

This Pinot Gris comes from Laird Family Estate's Bayview Vineyards in Los Carneros Sonoma. The 13-year old Pinot Gris vines are clone 152 on 101-14 rootstock. The grapes were harvested, then lightly whole-cluster pressed to extract the juice. The Pinot Gris was fermented in neutral oak barrels and underwent malolactic fermentation to impart a richness in the texture without adding oaky flavors. This is a beautiful, crisp white wine--perfect with a refreshing salad, grilled oysters, or oven roasted crab. (Only 208 cases produced).
