Tasting:

She said: Although not a Pinot Grigio grape it tasted a lot like one of the better ones we often drink. The crisp fruit and citrus taste follows a citrus bouquet with floral hints. This is an easy drinking wine with a medium body and long tasty finish. As much as I like this wine I think a slightly creamy chardonnay would have been better with the salmon but I am not complaining. I would drink this wine at any meal any time. It was delicious and a five star winner!!!
