The fruit-driven 1998 Pinot Grigio is not complex, but it cuts a savory mouthfeel, offering pear and ripe apple notes along with hefty glycerin and body. Drink it over the next year. This 4,000 case winery will expand production in 1999 to approximately 10,000 cases. This is good news for everyone who has been trying to find these hand-crafted products.One of my favorite artisanal California producers, Edmunds St. John continues to do tasty things with an assortment of varietals other than the wine world's favorite flavors - Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.Tel.
