They called it orange but more rose color. Loved this Pinot Grigio from Slovenia. Perfect on a summer evening

looks, smells and tastes like a rose, rose petals, jasmine, grapefruit, even strawberries. creamy and spicy in the palate. missing a hair of acidity but great and fun overall #slovenia #slovenianwine #pinotgrigio

Sep 2nd, 2023Slovenian orange-y pinot grigio(sivi pinot).
last of slovenian threesome.
72hr macerated on skin.
aged on lees with some oak used.
medium + body (skin influence I'm told).
high bursting acidity.
melon, peach, blossom, grapefruit and a hint
nutiness.
balanced and lovely with extra mojo.
ok vfm (80 nis)
works well with evening's dish washing after a hard day locked down with the kids while my wife is not here getting ready for court appearance in a few days.
no food pairing as I was tasting the leftovers all day long.

Agreed with Jo, a little more acid and this would absolutely SING

Apr 17th, 2018Slovenian Pinot Grigio. I knew they did barrels and now I've got my eyes peeled for more fun wines from this area. Skim contact gave it some weight and texture.
