The Gidda family is the largest holder of family-owned vineyards in the Okanagan Valley, and they have been growing grapes for 40 years.
A ripe style, leaning to the sweeter side this concentrated Pinot Gris is undoubtedly good value. It is fragrant with creamy pears, citrus blossoms, guava, lime and wild honey. The palate follows suit - It is weighty on the palate with loads of citrus and concentrated fruit followed with a mouth-watering spicy and zesty finish.
One caveat, the 14.4% alc makes it a bit hot on the finish.
Recommended pairings with poached salmon, hearty root vegetable dishes or mushroom risotto.
