"Oregon's King Estate is the country's largest producer of pinot gris,
and this is their newest, a value-priced offering with a slight hint of
residual sugar and moderate alcohol (12.2 percent). Its ripe, fresh,
spicy pear flavo...rs and crisp natural acids make it a surefire food

King Estate Winery Patrick Comiskey for the LA Times - "White wines to warm up your fall meals."

"Oregon's excellent Pinot Gris also possesses that unique Alsatian
marriage of richness and freshness -- these wines tend to be a bit more
fruit forward, with a cushiony warmth that complements dishes that
include roast chicken and poached salmon. Look to the ever-dependable
bottlings from King Estate..."

The equinox is past, the shadows have lengthened, and apples, pears, winter greens and mushrooms are filling the markets. It's the time of year when you remember that you possess a working oven in which to roast birds and gratins and root vegetables. ...

King Estate Winery Bill Daley, wine columnist for the Chicago Tribune, published some great reviews of King Estate Signature Pinot Gris and Acrobat Pinot Gris by King Estate. Two of his 3 "Winning Whites" with 3 corkscrew reviews!

Pinot noir has long been the king of Oregon wine, making reputations and fortunes. Yet on a trip to Oregon's Willamette Valley last year, the winemakers I met around the dinner table weren't talking about or initially drinking their famous reds.On their lips and in their glasses was a white wine. .....

Compost: putting the grapes back in the ground after we take them out. Each year we make 1,000+ tons of Organic compost on the estate. The main ingredient is grape pomace (leftover parts or byproducts after crushing grapes). So we take the grapes out of the earth and make wine, and put as much of them back in as we can..., so that more grapes grow and more wine can be made. A beautiful organic cycle.

The photo is of the auger that moves the pomace from the wine press to the dump truck that takes it out to the compost area.

Approaching tuna-melt perfection, Tommy Habetz’s sandwiches have the ideal tuna-to-cheese ratio. His smart idea: using balsamic vinaigrette in place of mayonnaise. More Fantastic Sandwiches

This is turning out to be a vintage year for late-summer sunshine, and that could be just what it takes to make a vintage year for wine. Wine grapes up and down the Willamette Valley are basking in the sunny weather as vineyard owners watch anxiously. ...
