I simply cannot get enough of this refreshing white—a blend from only certified sustainably farmed vineyards in Oregon, which speaks volumes for this excellent producer. Don’t let the screwcap scare you off; this is serious wine even if it is value priced at $15.99 a bottle. This elegant Pinot Gris offers delightful notes of fresh pear and apple highlighted with citrus, floral, and spice. Serve this with lighter dishes featuring scallops, halibut, or swordfish. As wonderful when sipped on its own as it is with food, you’ll want some extra bottles to stash in your cellar. Available at BevMo!
