Raptor Ridge 2024 Vineyard Select Pinot Gris

Raptor Ridge’s 2024 Vineyard Select Pinot Gris opens with a lifted aromatic profile of white peach, Bartlett pear, and Meyer lemon zest, layered over subtle floral tones of honeysuckle and apple blossom. On the palate, the wine is bright and textural, balancing crisp acidity with a gentle creaminess that comes from extended lees contact. Flavors of ripe melon, Asian pear, and citrus curd unfold gradually, finishing with a clean mineral edge that keeps the wine refreshing and structured. Its versatility makes it a natural partner for a wide range of dishes, shining alongside seared scallops, grilled halibut, citrus‑marinated chicken, spring vegetable risotto, or soft cheeses like chèvre and triple‑cream brie. The wine’s acidity also complements spiced dishes such as Thai coconut curry or Vietnamese herb‑driven cuisine, where its fruit and freshness provide harmony without overwhelming delicate flavors
