The Hess winemaking team likes to explore California’s best wine growing appellations in search of family-focused sustainable viticulture.
California’s plentiful sunshine ensures a consistent and long grape growing season, which provides flavorful fruit with layers of character from which our winemakers create distinct, expressive wines. To craft Hess Select Pinot Gris, they identified vineyard sites producing grapes with approachable acids and balanced fruit notes, the ideal foundation for this crisp, bright and inviting wine.
