Pale hue. Apple, melon, acidic, easy drinking. For the money, get some. Sure to be a crowd pleaser-- nothing overly complex. Easy to drink with or without food.

After reading the reviews I thought it would be unlikely I would enjoy Kirkland's pinot grigio. For $5 I was pleasantly surprised. Hints of lemon, lime and pear nectar. Easy drinker, but nothing really remarkable nor objectionable. Great QPR! Nice summer sipper served very cold. Will buy again.

Nearly colorless. Nose smells like fake bananas – like the banana from a box of Runts. It blows off some as the wine warms up from being pulled out of the ‘fridge. After that, I get lemons, limes, honeysuckle, and some wet gravel. Thicker bodied than expected, Medium Plus. Honeysuckle, and lime. Too sweet for my taste and not enough acidity. Honeysuckle and lemon finish that is short. Gets sweeter as it warms up.
For $5 a bottle it is good enough for cooking and stealing a glass, but not much more. There are other inexpensive Pinot Gris that are much more satisfying for just a few bucks more.

Easy drinking Pinot Grigio showing white flowers, green apple and guava. Tart and dry on the palate, not overly acidic with a hint of lime and saline on the finish.

Pale color. Fairly typical pinot grigio: green apple, slight melon undertone, moderately high acidity, smooth drinking. Tastes slightly buttery from malolactic fermentation Mouth feel was more moderate than I was expecting. Fairly simple wine, at a more than fair price point, perfect for a summer day on the patio or to pair with a weekday chicken meal. At $5 this is a good deal.

nose: more oak than fruit and who knows what fruit; palette: the balance is a little better, more fruit than oak but still not enough to really say what fruit

12.5% alcohol; Misa Imports, Dallas, TX; screw top; fast legs, light crystalline yellow; nose of alcohol, raspberries/blackberries, stone fruit, especially pears; opened and kept in the fridge for 24 hours; tasted at approximately 16 degrees C, full bodied, notes of oranges and orange zest, tropical flavors like passion fruit, guava, a pinch of mint, trace of marshmallow; fruit forwardness dominates, tannins retreat into the background, fast finish; pair with grilled tuna, bison steak, or pan fried chicken, would go well with nuts and cheese hors d'oeuvres

Crisp, light, refreshing - as a Pinot Grigio should be. Delightful hint of almond. Extra points for being only $5.

첫날은 알콜이 너무 튀었는데 둘째날에 감자전과 페어링하니 그 특유의 산미가 느끼함도 잡아주고 괜찮았다. 오크터치가 거의
느껴지지 않는 신선한 포도맛이랄까, 다시 마셔봐야할듯

You know, for a six dollar Pinot Grigio, you could do a lot worse. Not very interesting, but not terrible either.
