Here’s another review of the 2008 Horse & Plow Pinot Gris:

“Gray Pinot (pinot gris) sounds pretty drab and 9 times out of 10 the name fits the wine. Yet in the hands of some winemakers this variety can sing. Joining the ranks of delicious and interesting wines from this variety, including wines like Jermann, Chehalem, Albert Mann among others, is the Horse and Plow 2008 Pinot Gris,, Filigreen Farm, Anderson Valley. Crisp, refreshing, but in no way light and simple, it is loaded with creamy fresh pear and white peach flavors all accented by a tangy minerality and firm acidity. This wine was barrel fermented in neutral oak, which shows in the lovely texture and a yeasty whisper on the nose. A whopping 350 cases were produced so Santa Margharita Pinot Grigio has as much to worry about as it has flavor.”-Craig Camp-Wine Camp Blog

2008 Horse & Plow Pinot Gris- Filigreen Farm,  Anderson Valley

“Beautiful. Grown in the cool Anderson Valley, this wine was barrel-fermented in older oak, which adds creamy vanilla notes to the intensely ripe citrus fruits, pears and honeysuckle. High acidity makes it all so clean and zesty.”
