Pinot Gris and Riesling

SEC

11% abv

Batch 310

1542 of 2600 bottles

$17.00

Appearance: straw; pale lemon water

Aroma: very light nose; light lemon water; ‘wet’

Flavors: there is a lemon water theme going on here; lemon, fresh melon, biscuit, candy sugar, 

Mouthfeel: lemon citrus zest, crisp, sweet but, not overly sweet, does remind me of a Pinot Gris

To the Point: a nice bubbly, perfect for a hot summer day, pair this with white fish or shellfish.

Here are a few pictures from my visit back on the first week of March

11% abv

$14.49 Wine Barrel in Livonia, Michigan

Appearance: as light of a straw-yellow without being water; plenty of bubbles on the pour

Aroma: a light fresh chilled green apple, pear, and light biscuit; yes – a very light bouquet

Flavors: lively note of fresh sweet red apple on the front, slightly tart green apple on mid and finish, crisp clean pear, do they have a pear flavored cotton candy at the local fair? … if not this will do.   

Mouthfeel: it is a Demi-sec so it is on the sweet side without being overly sweet. Super fine fizzy bubbles help to tingle the tongue for a crisp feel. Slightly tart finish that lingers on the palate along with the dominate cotton candy sweetness.   

To the Point: a very nice demi-sec sparkling wine.  The nose is light and the flavors are lively.  Would make a nice dessert wine or maybe pair it with a fresh fruit salad.  I have to admit that I am not a fan of dry to sweet, extra-dry is ok, but I prefer brut to brut nature.  With that said, I do like this Fizz.   

Here are a couple of pictures from the winery when I was there in March
