LA CREMA PINOT GRIS MONTEREY 2021

The Monterey AVA includes of a long valley stretching from the uniquely cold Monterey Bay to the far Southeast reacheing the Salinas Valley. An always breezy and maritime influence rises from the ocean, cooling wide expanses of the rolling vineyards. Fruit for this wine was sourced from two distinct vineyards in the southern reaches of the Monterey AVA near the town of King City. The soils in the vineyards are predominately free draining loams.

The 2021 Pinot Gris crop was well balanced and came with great flavor intensity, fresh juicy acidity and refned phenolic development. Their 2021 Pinot Gris harvest began on September 14th.

Fresh aromas of lemon blosson, Anjou pear, and candied gingers, with slight flavors of Meyer lemon, Asian pear, pineapple and necterine. The fresh, yet rich and multilayered texture has distinctive mineral notes that offer a nice counterpoint to juicy acidity.
