Kim Crawford, Marlborough (New Zealand) Pinot Gris 2007

($17, Icon Estates): This wine helps New Zealand shake the image that it only produces one wine, Sauvignon Blanc.  Kim Crawford, one of Marlborough top producers, combines an engaging creaminess with a dollop of pear and stone fruit flavors buttressed by vibrant acidity.  No oak intrudes or mars the bright profile. 88 Michael Apstein Apr 22, 2008
