Catches the easygoing freshness and subtlety of Italian pinot grigio, then bumps up the flavours a notch. Fresh peach, white bread crust and grapefruit combine nicely. Mid-weight, fleshy and juicy, if a touch bitter on the finish. A good aperitif sipper with such mild white cheeses as gouda and Swiss. LCBO 83196
