Winemaker notes:
100% Pinot Gris from Greengate Ranch in Edna Valley. Greengate is a premier property on the south-west end of the Edna Valley. It was a former horse pasture and now grows some of the best Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and White varietals on the central coast. We harvested the grapes at the perfect acidity to ensure freshness. It is super bright with brimming acidity.
