Wine for the Weekend

Firesteed Pinot Gris, Oregon 2012
$17.80 LCBO 323808
Before you raise your eyebrows in protest of drinking a bright and mineral-driven white during this frigid cold snap we’re experiencing, here us out:
Yes, it’s true this crisp white wine could easily be enjoyed in the warm months with its aromas of flint, citrus, stone fruit and mineral that burst on the palate. But with medium body and a pleasing oily texture this refreshing, yet somewhat weighty wine is perfect for the cold days of winter alongside creamy cheeses, seared scallops or roast pork loin.
Delicious and poised, worth picking up a few bottles to drink throughout the year.
