Xavier Goodridge Pa Pa Pinot Gris 2024

This is Pinot Gris, straight up and down. It’s packed with pear and yellow apple fruit, subtly supported by hints of petrichor and quince, with perhaps a touch of persimmon. The palate follows suit—round and straightforward with fruit upfront, balanced by some bitter tonic notes. Ample texture and a welcome grip frame the wine’s rotund feel. It’s a drink-and-don’t-think vibe, nicely hitting the markers for a Gris at this price point.
