Two things - I forgot to use my fall wine glass at Thanksgiving so I’m using it now. And I don’t usually like Pinot Grigio because I don’t think it has much flavor but this one is really good. Reminds me of a Riesling, very zesty, has my mouth watering for more! Really enjoying it!

For a mass produced wine, showing pretty well. At sushi. Pear rind, citrus, chalky minerality and nice acid.

Straw with full fruit and floral aromas. On the palate tropical fruit and apple flavors, fresh and crisp with good balance. Medium finish ending with fresh mineral ending. Nice value. Tasting Sample.

Best thing shakin' here on the college-visiting tour. Bright, stony, herbs, hint of spearmint. Refreshing. Quaffable. 12.5% alc.

Haha! Luv it when Delictable hasn't seen my wines before. Well, this wasn't $hit. Quite frankly on its 25th bday it was more interesting than several Pernand-Vergelesses.,Pouilly-Fume, high end Macon blancs and a few Chassagne-Montrachets I can think of. No oxidation whatsoever. Aromas were light, to be expected, but the palate remained fresh and true to varietal nature: citrus, crisp green apple, young pear on the palate. In the end I remain rather encouraged about the modest aging potential for a wine whose production numbers can reach in excess of 6,000,000 cases!

Smell: smells pretty acidic, strong tones of lemon and such.
Taste: tastes super good, perfect balance of sweet and acidic
