<p><strong>2014 Pinot Gris - Vin Gris </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph {"align":"left"} -->
<p class="has-text-align-left">The Pinot Gris-Vin Gris is a wonderful addition to the Pinot Gris line-up at Red Newt.  In 2014 we made two distinctly different Pinot Gris from the fruit gown at Curry Creek Vineyards.  The single-vineyard bottling follows the traditional style of Red Newt winemaking for Pinot Gris, while the Pinot Gris - Vin Gris takes a unique path and does have a decent amount of barrel aging and went through malolactic fermentation.  The result of this fermentation process is the lovely fruit of Curry Creek Vineyards with a more unctuous mouthfeel and a softer creaminess. </p>
