Kelley Fox (USA) – Weber Pinot Gris

Weber Pinot Gris by is a natural wine made in Oregon with grapes.

“

You may or may not be aware that Pinot Gris (technically a white grape despite having a pinkish hue) is rather special when macerated on the skins, giving it this lovely light rouge colour – making you think it’s a light red or rosé.

Popular with natural producers in Alsace but increasingly more common elsewhere the past few years, this particular macerated Pinot Gris comes from Oregon, USA from respected producer Kelley Fox.

It takes a little time to open up, and when it does will reward you with an array of interesting notes to explore, which for some will include black tea, cranberry and hay. Very interesting wine.
