A clean nose of dried apricots with the usual pinot grigio floral notes and even some fresh herbs. Palette displays a mineral crunch and a nice apricot finish. High quality in its price bracket.
From the Wine Maker – “The Y Series Pinot Grigio is a refreshing wine displaying aromas of pear and custard apple with a fine acidity, balanced by layers of lemon curd and a hint of marzipan. A light bodied wine, it has a slightly mealy texture that adds to the mouth-watering and lingering finish.”
This wine is excellent with pasta in light wine sauce like lemon-flavored olive oil or spicy Asian noodles. It also goes well with caesar or green salads with light to medium dressings.
