A wonderful wine with dinner tonight. Hmm, I can't exactly remember when I bought this Robert Sinskey Vineyards, 2013 Pinot Gris (Los Carneros AVA), but I'm really glad that I did.
Paired with shrimp for dinner, this wine was just gorgeous. A light, light brass colour, the nose was filled with a rich honeyed-butterscotchy, orange blossomy, limey-ness. (I don't believe any of those in reality are legal wine descriptors.) This slightly spicy, medium bodied white wine had lots of bright lime-citrus, Bramley apple skin tartness on the palate with a slight almondy-bitterness on the finish. Yum.
And there you have it, a truly wonderful tipple. He's not my actual uncle, but thank you Bob Sinskey for making a fabulous wine.

A five year old PG that gets wows from Vinogirl is impressive!
I think your non-wine descriptors works for me!
NHW: And it only got better as it opened up, a lovely wine.
Illegal descriptors....you webel!
Thud: Wine-wenegade, that's me!
