P: Med body; Very RNDISH entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by balancing acidity which evolves into a LONG, tangy/swt finish with a very, VERY slight bitterness that MIGHT not be an issue with food. 12.5% ABV; My VG+. [This vendor's $13.95 is the best on wine-searcher.]
Note: My 4th time tasting this. Fairly consistent notes;

Fred rec. tasted blind. If there was ever a wine that tasted like sunshine, this is it!! Really nice wine - stony, minerally, wet stone, old world wine with new world charm, more fruit forward, peach, pear, white and tropical fruit on nose and palate, some citrus, nice mouth feel. Very crisp and pure on the nose & follows through to palate. Can tell it was in stainless stell & no oak. Great acidity & back bone. Never had a pinot grigio that was so well structured, deep and delicious, hard to justify a $20 pinot grigio, but if i didn't know it was a pinot grigio i wouldn't have thought it was a pinot grigio! It's a true wine afficionado's pinot grigio. Not your typical pinot grigio... Kroger = $18.80 incl 20%case disc

P: LM, poss Med, body; RNDISH entry with ALMOST swtish frt juxtaposed by an acidity which makes itself felt into & through the LONG, very, VERY slightly bitter finish with a hint of swtness to KIND of balance things out. For now & through '19. My VG+. [This vendor's $13.95 is the best on wine-searcher.]

Looks very pale in the glass, and the nose is almost over delicate, I had to really get in there to get the tropical notes with melon and some peach. Paired very well with a pan seared chicken and mashed potatoes meal. I didn’t think this would be that good but it’s a pleasant surprise.

Very steely and minerally with layers of white fruit. Pear, white peach, pineapple. This is a real wine, not just a simple, swilling pinot grigio.
