Blue Pirate 2007 Pinot Gris (Oregon)
-
$20
Whether or not you like the orange and blue packaging, the screwcap and the cutesy story about bluebirds stealing hazelnuts, the Blue Pirate is a wine worth exploring. This is juicy, fleshy, tangy Pinot Gris, loaded with flavors of just-ripe pears and hints of citrus rind, pineapple and vanilla. Big and relatively high in alcohol, this can take on major seafood…
