August 2007

Greetings from Ross Andrew Winery:

In 2006 we harvested the first white grapes ever for Ross Andrew Winery: Pinot Gris from the famed Celilo Vineyard in the Columbia Gorge AVA (one of the greatest white grapes sites in the Northwest). The resulting wine has wonderfully bright (yet subtle) aromatics of bosc pear and ginger-topped white fruit. There is incredible balance between the crisp acidity and the slightest (barely detectable) hint of sweetness. This wine is great on its own or with any selection of summer fare. The official release of this wine won't be until November, but the wine is tasting so great on these hot summer days, we couldn't resist releasing a little now. With only 100 cases in the queue we don't expect this one to last long.

Kindest Regards,

Ross Andrew Winery
