Pale straw yellow color with brilliant reflections. Delicately fruity bouquet, with outstanding finesse and marked hints of almond blossom and peaches. Elegant, soft and well-structured fruit on the palate, with remarkable freshness and a clean persistent aftertaste. - Vintage Cellar
My Review:
This Pinot Grigio in my opinion portrayed itself like a $5.95 bottle of wine. On the nose it was very floral, and had hints of an almost gasoline-like burn. It was palate-able, albeit very tart, and full of over-ripened citrus fruits. It lacked any sign of a substantial mid-palate. On the finish, there was a prominent taste of alcohol accompanied by a decent amount of heat. Although it was not a very good Pinot Grigio, for the price, it was decent about what I expected.
I did not taste this wine with food.
