Iris Vineyards Pinot Gris

At the University of Oregon, this husband-and-wife team discovered a mutual interest in food and wine. After several years abroad, they returned home to Oregon to start a family and planted their own vineyard in 1996. Iris’ first vintage was released in 2001. In addition to their own vineyard, they have also entered into long-term relationships with some of Oregon’s finest growers (farmers). This wine carries a rich and compelling nose, with a mix of soft apple, spicy melon and yellow pear, with lots of refreshing acidity and a hint of chamomile blossom.
