    • 89 points, Wine Enthusiast
    • "Although the 2011 vintage was difficult, Foris did particularly well with this lightly spicy, fruit-laden Pinot Gris.  True varietal flavors of pear and apple are pefectly set against vivid acidity."
  • My review:
    • I really liked the slight spice in this wine, which complemented the pear and citrus notes and made the wine taste warm and summery.  It was surprisingly sweet and a little bit dry. 
  • I did not have this wine with food.
  • Tasted at the Vintage Cellar wine tasting on 04/13/2013.
