The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
La Crema Pinot Gris is a fresh, aromatic white from producer La Crema, crafted from cool-climate California fruit. This 750ml bottling opens with an inviting mix of aromas — pear, lemon curd, pineapple, and white floral notes — that give the wine an expressive, layered nose right from the first pour.
On the palate, flavors of Meyer lemon and nectarine come through, followed by a texture that manages to feel both fresh and rich at the same time, giving the wine more depth than many lighter Pinot Gris bottlings. That combination of brightness and richness makes it a flexible food wine, equally at home alongside grilled fish, shrimp, or roast chicken as it is with richer dishes like creamy pasta or pork tenderloin with fruit chutney.
Pinot Gris continues to grow in popularity among white wine drinkers looking for something with a bit more texture than Sauvignon Blanc but more brightness than an oaked Chardonnay, and La Crema's version delivers on both fronts. Serve well chilled to enjoy its full aromatic profile. Order this Pinot Gris online at Habits Bottle Shop and add a versatile, food-friendly white to your collection.

On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
