Archery Summit Willamette Valley Pinot Gris Vireton 2023 SF Chronicle - Past Pick If you like Gamay butNamed for a spinning crossbow arrow, Vireton is Archery Summit's crisp, aromatic take on Oregon Pinot Gris, and it's built for easy pleasure. Rather than leaning on any single vineyard, it pulls 100% Pinot Gris from across the Willamette Valley to capture the whole region in a glass. Bright grapefruit and floral aromatics jump out, and a cool climate, saline snap keeps it lively and refreshing. It's the kind of white you can pour without ceremony.
