The wine has bright tropical fruit, peach, watermelon, fresh apricot and notes of mango Hi-Chews that go into a long, mineral and citrus-driven finish. With less than 3 g/L sugar, this is a dry and acid driven style of gris that can be enjoyed on its own on a hot day – or better still, at the dinner table!Show More >

Tikka was Eric Lemelson’s Great Pyrenees dog who loved to patrol the perimeter of our Pinot gris vineyards. This wine is a tribute to her. Tikka’s Run Pinot gris is sourced from Chestnut Hill Vineyard, our
highest elevation site. By farming our Pinot gris at high elevation, we preserve the wine’s minerality and crisp nature. The 2023 Tikka’s Run Pinot gris shows bright pear, lemon peel, white peach, and white
flower notes that flow into a long, mineral and citrus-driven finish. A good fraction of this wine was barrel fermented helping to round out the richness of this Pinot gris and bring it into balance with the wine’s refreshing, acidic backbone.
