Phelps Creek Vineyards grows a tiny parcel of Pinot Gris at their Estate Vineyards in Hood River, Oregon, within the Columbia Gorge winegrowing region. Both the estate parcel and sourced fruit from nearby Underwood Mountain — within eyesight across the Columbia River — benefit from cool climate cultivation that results in beautiful acid balance, while volcanic soils add spice and mineral elements. Gentle whole-cluster pressing and sur lie French barrel fermentation bring texture and complexity to the mouthfeel.
