The promise is fulfilled when the silky texture and uplifting acidity come together with flavors reminiscent of melon, citrus, apple and honey. Classically Erath. -Gary Horner, Winemaker Wine History Erath has been working with this grape variety for more than two decades. The style of our Pinot Gris shows purity of fruit, balance and wonderful acidity in an unadulterated "no wood, no malolactic" style. This attention to detail starts in the vineyards and continues to the winery. From the close monitoring of cluster counts and weights to whole cluster pressing and cool fermentation temperatures, the goal is to make a lively, approachable white wine that is food-friendly and indicative of the cooler growing conditions in Oregon. Vintage Overview The road leading up to the superb 2009 vintage presented a challenging set of unique growing conditions. Bud break arrived on April 15th,  approximately 10 days later than average. Low temperatures and high humidity between the last week of June and the second week of July put the vines at high risk of developing mold and mildew. Temperatures exceeded 105 degrees during the last week of July caused excessive vine stress at certain vineyards. Fortunately, a warm but not hot late September and early October ensured full maturity and excellent varietal character. Despite early indications, the 2009 harvest commenced slightly earlier than the historic average yet completed on the same date the 2008 vintage began further putting into prospective vintage to vintage variability, just one of our region’s many strengths Technical Data: <ul> <li>Appellation: Oregon</li> <li>Harvest: September 26 - October 11, 2009</li> <li>T.A.: 0.67gm/100mL</li> <li>pH: 3.35</li> <li>Alcohol: 13.5%</li> </ul> <ul style="padding-left: 15px"> <li>SKU: 34583</li> </ul> Other products in the category <a href="http://store.erath.com/Category16" title="All Wines">All Wines</a>: <ul style="padding-left: 15px"><li> <a href="http://store.erath.com/Product71" title="2008 Pinot Noir Prince Hill 777 Clone">2008 Pinot Noir Prince Hill 777 Clone</a> -- Scents of bright red cherry, vanilla-spice, anise, and a tease of toffee levitate from the glass, leading to ... raspberry and a late wave of long-lasting mocha.
