Name: Cortenova Pinot Grigio
Variety: 100% Pinot Grigio
Region: Venezie
Country: Italy
Year: 2012

Shop Review: "Brilliant straw color with emerald reflections. Fresh and floral bouquet with a hint of pears, apricots, and bananas. Fresh and inviting with bright fruit and an easy drinking style with a pleasing hint of almonds in the finish. Pairs well with seafood dishes, risottos with scampi,spaghetti with clams, sole in white wine. Perfect also as an aperitif."
My Review: This white wine had a refreshingly light taste. There were hints of fruit, and overall the wine did not have a very strong acidic taste to it. The sweetness of the wine was very enjoyable, and I could see myself drinking it again in the future. I did not drink the wine with any food, but I think the wine's taste was good on its own.
