($16): The range of Iris Vineyards’ wines I’ve tasted recently have been so noteworthy for quality and price, I would be tempted to buy future offerings without having tasted them beforehand. Take this 2020 Pinot Gris. It is simply marvelous, with subtle hint of pears and stone fruit-like flavors perfectly balanced by zesty energy. It has depth without a trace of heaviness, which gives it a wonderful presence. It opens in the glass revealing new nuances with each sip. Bright acidity in the finish amplifies its charms. And it is a fantastic buy.
