winemaker's notes:
The wine appears an intense straw yellow with gold
highlights, luminous and appealing. Rich, complex notes of fruit are first to please, with banana, pear, mandarin, and kumquat, as well as pink grapefruit and white peach, and the bouquet ends in a flourish with generous orange blossom honey. The elegance and length of the palate are
notable, as is its silky mouthfeel, finely balanced by a crisp acidity and ultra-savory fruit. Overall, a complex, well-balanced
wine that is approachable and
utterly delicious
This wine pairs well with roast poultry and rabbit, even
lamb, grills, stuffed meat dishes.
critical acclaim:
"A ripe Pinot Grigio, displaying flavors of pineapple, apricot and patisserie apple and pear, joined by hints of almond paste and licorice. Fresh acidity keeps this a bit lively, and shows on the modest, salty finish. Drink now. 5,000 cases imported."
