Vintage Character Underwood Pinot Gris 2022 from Oregon is a dry white wine that captures the easygoing, fruit-forward style for which the state has become especially admired. The 2022 vintage in Oregon delivered healthy fruit with vibrant acidity, a combination that gives wines like this both immediate appeal and strong value. Sourced from Oregon’s cool-climate vineyard zones, where long daylight hours and marked day-to-night temperature swings help preserve freshness, it shows the bright, energetic profile that makes Pinot Gris such a natural fit for the region.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the nose, expect lively pear, green apple and Meyer lemon, with touches of white peach, citrus blossom and a faint mineral lift. The palate is light- to medium-bodied, crisp and supple, balancing juicy orchard fruit with refreshing acidity and a clean, polished finish. Its straightforward purity makes it especially versatile at the table: try it with grilled halibut, lemon-herb roast chicken, or sushi.
