Dilworth & Allain 2022 Franklinford Vineyard Pinot Gris

Notes from D&A.
Hand-picked on March 18th and transported back to the winery where the fruit was destemmed and soaked on skins for 12 hours. Bottled unfined and unfiltered. The Pinot Gris gives aromas of stone fruits, wet rock and lifted floral notes. It is a powerful rendition of this variety which is still refreshing but has a textural phenolic element that comes from the grape skin maceration. It is dry and acid driven with a fruit core of nectarines, apples and freshly baked pastries.
