Living Roots, Pinot Gris, 2024

Not your average Pinot Gris. Living Roots, the Finger Lakes-meets-Australia project from Seb and Colleen Hardy, ferments this one wild in stainless and lets it sit on the lees for the better part of a year. That patience builds real texture and mouthfeel while the cool New York vintage keeps everything fresh, so you get richness and cut in the same glass. Pear, ginger spice, and a leesy, savory weight set it apart from the crowd. A textural, ambitious white from one of New York's most creative addresses.
