Wine Tasting: Tonnino Pinot Grigio 2014

Name: Tonnino Pinot Grigio
Variety: Pinot Grigio
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2014
Price: Regular $14, on sale $7.95

Winery Review: Tonnino’s exotic example of Pinot Grigio has a straw to pale gold color. It is fresh and clean on the nose with fruity notes of pear, green apple and white peaches. The palate is true to the nose with a fresh acidity, coriander and lime notes followed by a crisp finish. This wine pairs well with youthful aperitifs, clams or mussels, pastas and risotto dishes.

My Review: Light gold in color, fruity on the nose with scents of green apples, peaches, pears, pineapple, and banana. Nice and crisp, medium acidity. A nice wine to drink on a warm spring day.

I did not have this wine with food.
