2 Lads Winery - 2007 Pinot Grigio
Sunday, June 28, 2009
I picked up this wine last fall while at the vineyard and decided to open while hanging on the patio. If you are not familiar with 2 Lads, its a newer vineyard on Old Mission Peninsula up in Traverse City, MI. They have an amazing view of the bay from their tasting room which is up on a hill and very modern in design. They don't have many labels so far but the ones they do have are quite good. I wasn't as impressed with the Chardonnay last year but I am looking forward to the 2008 harvest and expect to snag a bottle when it is released next month. The 2007 Pinot Grigio is full of fruit, pear and green apple are present as well as some tight acid on the finish. This wine is not as crisp as some Italian Pinot Grigio's but for Michigan it's not bad. I am curious to see how this season turns out and hope to get up north at least once more this summer/fall.
