Wine Enthusiast, 90 Points 

"Pink in color like a rosé, this Pinot Gris from Sierra Madre Vineyard spent 10 days on the skins, providing aromas of mango and papaya on the nose. It's tart on the palate, with grapefruit peel and sour berry flavors, proving quite interesting." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Lumen Escence is an orange wine, meaning that it is a white grape that is treated in the winery like a red grape. We picked our favorite Pinot Gris at Sierra Madre Vineyard a few weeks early, then fermented on the skins for a full 10 days. The resulting wine is full of character: strawberry and peach, piercing & puckering attack, kombucha and kimchi, lime." 

Alcohol: 11.5%
