Coppery straw in color, this New World white delivers Old World character – all the brightness and structure you associate with Northeast Italy, all the accessible fresh fruit flavors you’d expect from California. It begins with a melon nose over minerals and traces of nuts, figs and dates. Moving to delicious ripe peach and melon flavors in the mouth, you’ll find plenty of vibrant acidity, heft and extraction in this lean release.

A very light and easy drinking wine, not too strong of flavors, very smooth and is well balanced in flavors. Delicious!
I enjoyed this wine very much. I enjoyed the flavor and was not very over powering… Something that everyone can enjoy
I usually like sweet wines, but this one had a nice crisp taste that I am learning to like from the parties I have attended
This was very popular with my guests. A tasty wine with a cute label is a surefire hit!

First, loved the label, very fresh and “eye” catching!
Was love at first look, clear, crisp and light, everything I would want in pinot grigio and more, exceeded my expectations.
Was unable to try this wine. Pinot is my favorite wine. Was not available for tasting.
I am not a huge pinto grigio fan, however I liked this wine. It was light and crisp and left a nice c lean taste in the mouth.
a favorite of all – bought by a few Great pinot grigio
Seems to be a favorite of all guests, no matter their tastes definitely keep this one stocked in your wine rack!
light and crisp! The first thing I noticed was there no oakiness about it, then I read the blurb that it was aged in stainless steel. PG’s can often be overwhelmed by the wood of the casks, so stainless steel is definitely the way to go. I will by more of this wine for sure!
Absolutely love the lightness of this wine! We paired it with teriyaki chicken, and it was a huge hit!
Wonderful wine!
excellent!!! I loved it!!
It was definitely a party favorite!
This wine struck me as light and particularly crisp, with more flavor than many commercially available Pinot Grigio’s. It has a very clean finish leaving you ready for your next glass!
