"Yo, this wine is $9 and it's damn good! Notes of mint and yogurt on the nose, with some apples and pears for good measure. The palate is rich and round with all aromas carrying over. This is a very expressive wine for the category and a good one to have in the fridge for whenevs, ya, know?"
PERFECT FOR:
All-Day Sipping, Pleasing A Crowd, Relaxing After Work- Vinepair (July 2019), Wherever-whenever-whatever Pinot Grigio
"Pale straw color. Musty aromas and flavors of overripe peaches, sour cream, and hay with a supple, crisp, dryish light-to-medium body and a smooth, captivating, breezy lemon spritzed melon rind, green apple, and dusty earth finish. A nice, light, citrusy pinot grigio that will work well at the table."

"This is a nice, mineral-infused Pinot Grigio. It's bright and fresh like a Pinot Grigio should be with herbal and citrus notes, good flavor density (unlike many inexpensive Italian whites), and excellent persistence. It's the kind of wine that would pair grilled fish or can be drunk as a summer aperitif.
