2008 Etude Carneros Pinot Gris

This wine is an excellent Pinot Gris and is available for $19-22 a bottle.  I have to thank our neighbors, Shirley and Bob, who introduced us to this wine.  From Robert Parker:  "Crisp, with surprising fruit intensity, good texture, and a dry finish."  From K&L:  "The 2008 Etude Pinot Gris opens with inviting aromas of key lime, wet stone minerality, orange blossom, and hints of white peach.  The pure flavors carry over on the palate and mingle with subtle cardamom and jasmine notes.  The wine is fresh with bright acidity and a richness that begs the next sip."
