Tasting-Conte Priola Pinot Grigio



Name:  Conte Priola Pinot Grigio

Variety:  Pinot Grigio

Region:  Veneto

Country:  Italy

Year:  2011

Price:  $6.99

Notes  (from store tag at Total Wine and More): Italy-Crisp yet delicate, this dry, light-bodied wine has refreshing citrus flavors and represents an excellent value. Have it as an aperitif, with light hors d'oeuvres or a seafood lunch or dinner.

My tasting notes:  Unremarkable. Some hint of lemon and apple, but pretty dry and just tasted flat, with little body.  Tried it both chilled and room temperature.  A little better at room temperature with slightly more body, but we won't be buying any more.  Did not try this wine with food.
