Tasting--Cielo Pinot Grigio



Name:  Cielo Pinot Grigio

Variety: Pinot Grigio

Region: Northern Italy, probably Trentino-Alto Adige or Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Country:  Italy

Year:  2011

Price:  $7.99

Winemaker's Notes (from Total Wine and More Website):  Straw yellow with green reflections and hints of bread and green apple on the nose. Clean and fresh with balanced fuit and acidity and a touch of spice on the finish.

My tasting notes: I can smell the green apple and the bread on the nose. On the palate, the green apple predominates. Finish is not particularly notable. Better than other Pinot Grigio that I tried this semester, but I Pinot Grigio is a bit light for my taste. My wife said that this wine was better with cheese.
