Tasting - Sutter Home Pinot Grigio



Name: Sutter Home Pinot Grigio
Variety: 100% Pinot Gris
Region: CA
Country: United States
Year: 2011
Price: Not Sure (Was a gift)
Winery Review:
"Fresh floral aromas and sweet flavors of white peach, melon, citrus, and tropical fruits beg your palate not to forget this night or this wine.  Pinot Grigio wine’s crispness primes the palate for food and pairs well with all seafood, cheeses, and spicy Latin and Asian fare.”


 My Review: On the nose aromas of apple, orange, and citrus fruit are noticeable.  The taste is very similar to the nose of the wine.  Tart apple, honeydew and cantaloupe melon, and just a hint of pineapple come through right away.  The wine is light-bodied with a good acidic element making it a very crisp, refreshing wine.  I enjoyed this wine without any food.
