2006 Balletto Late Harvest Pinot Gris -
Russian River Valley
As grape growers first, we strongly feel that with good grapes comes good wine. It all starts in the field. With the help of winemaker Dan Cederquist, we decided to try something new, last harvest it was this wine, a late harvest Pinot Gris.
