Shop Review: Brilliant straw color with emerald reflections. Fresh and floral bouquet with a hint of pears, apricots and bananas. Fresh and inviting with bright fruit and an easy drinking style with a pleasing hint of almonds in the aftertaste. Pairs well with seafood dishes, risottos with scampi, spaghetti with clams, sole in white wine Perfect also as an aperitif.
My Review: This wine smelled very sweet, which instantly had me excited to try this wine since my novice palate still enjoys the sweeter wines. Upon tasting the wine, I noticed hints of fruit, particularly apples. I thought this was a pretty good Pinot Grigio, and I enjoyed the wine.
With or Without Food: Without food
