2006 King Estate
Oregon Pinot Gris $16
Score: 96.0
It's usual to describe and rate a wine by its aromas and flavors (which, in this case, call to mind orange blossom and white peach with a citrus edge), but what I love about this wine is its texture, its delicacy, and its minerality. It's a lovely wine -- light bodied, subtle, silky, persistent. As good as Oregon Pinot Noirs can be, Pinot Gris is Oregon's best wine.
