($20): The Black family purchased an existing vineyard in the Dundee Hills in 2003, immediately started to transform it and named the winery after their four daughters.  This graceful (no pun intended) Pinot Gris shows the beauty of that varietal and is a classic example of it.  Clean and fresh, it has wonderful depth and a mouth-coating texture.  This is not a light innocuous “Pinot Grigio” style.  Rather, it has substance, character and vivacity.  It took a Gold Medal at the 2013 Critics Challenge International Wine Competition.
