Review - Tonnino Pinot Grigio

Name: Tonnino Pinot Grigio
Variety: 100% Pinot Grigio
Region: Sicily
Country: Italy
Year: 2014
Price: $14.00

Wine Shop 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.

Personal Review: The 2014 Pinot Grigio by Tonnino brought a crisp, fresh, green apple bouquet to the nose. The palate, from start to finish, closely resembled the nose with a floral and green apple taste. I think this would be an outstanding wine to cleanse your palate prior to a meal. I'm not usually a big fan of pinot grigio but I would drink this again.

Note: I did not consume this wine with food.
