The wine appears as a very pale yellow in the glass. Its nose suggests more citrus and minerals than flowers and fruit. The aromas come across as a savory salinity, not the dainty sweetness which afflicts many Pinot Grigio wines. The palate follows suit, with a bit of the sea in the flavor profile that centers largely on limes, lemons and grapefruit. The finish is medium long and the minerals are the lasting impression. The acidity is zippy and fresh enough for seafood and salad pairings.

Oct 23rd, 2021This wine is drier than your typical - or at least my typical - Pinot Grigio. Almost the color of water, the nose shows the usual suspects: flowers and limes and rocks, oh my. The accent on minerality is a nice flourish, particularly in this grape. On the palate, the floral angle plays a tad stronger, with citrus in tow. That Sicilian salinity makes itself known throughout.

Light bodied straw wine, with an aroma of mustiness and subtle floral notes. The taste is nothing but lemon, no complexity as far as I can tell. Mostly dry and very acidic.
