Wine Wednesday | Red Rooster Pinot Gris 2018

September 16, 2020 Blog, Kelsey Somerville, Wine Wednesday

Happy Wine Wednesday, friends! This week’s Wine Wednesday featured wine is the classic Pinot Gris from Red Rooster.

Red Rooster is a winery located in the Okanagan Valley. They’ve been rewarded 6 Lieutenant Governor’s Award of Excellence.

From their website: “Clear and bright with a fresh, clean aroma of peach, melon, pear, yellow apple and marzipan. This rooster shows a slightly rich, round fleshy profile with peach, melon and a hint of spice on the palate. Then refreshing notes of orange, tangerine, lemon drop and yellow plum ‘take flight’ on the finish.”

I don’t think I have ever said, “this wine tastes like melon” but I definitely tasted the melon notes in this one. It’s aromatic and very flavourful. Citrusy and delicious. This is absolutely one I would reach for again.

The classic Pinot Gris from Red Rooster has an alcohol content of 13.5% and it retails for $25 and some change at Barrel Wine ‘n’ Spirits.

If you are a Pinot Gris fan, I also HIGHLY recommend the Pinot Gris from Ruby Blue’s Winery which is also available available at Barrel Wine ‘n’ Spirits.

Get 10% off your wine purchase at Barrel Wine ‘n’ Spirits every Wednesday.
