Item Description
You are bidding on four (4) bottles of award-winning Taft Street Winery 2014 Russian River Valley Pinot Gris, in a reusable 4-bottle wine carrier.
This Russian River Valley Pinot Gris has refreshing notes of pear and nectarine. Honeysuckle and ginger persist through a satisfying finish. The moderate acidity and low ph makes this dry white wine a natural with seafood and moderately spiced Asian fare.
About the Wine
- Awards: Gold Medal, 2016 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition; Silver Medal, 2015 Sonoma County Harvest Fair.
- Vinification: The wine was cold fermented in stainless steel tanks with minimal handling and fining.
- Vineyard Location: The grapes for this wine came from the Vino Farms’ vineyard located on Eastside Road, on the banks of the Russian River.
- Vintage Conditions: Similar to 2013, a long growing season with moderate weather provided added hang time for the fruit to develop ripe flavors. A mild winter and spring without frost led to crisper wines with higher acidity.
About the Winery
Family owned and operated since 1979. The term “garagistes” originated in Bordeaux in the 1980’s and referred to a group of innovative winemakers who produced exceptional wines in their garages rather than in grand chateaux. Since 1979, we have carried on the garagistes tradition of innovation and excellence in a chateau-alternative locale.
From a backyard Berkeley garage to an old apple processing plant in Sebastopol, California, the family at Taft Street continues in the garagistes traditions to this day, crafting limited production, crowd-pleasing wines from select Sonoma County vineyards.
