Deliciously aromatic, this light to medium-bodied dry style pinot grigio is laden with white peach, nashi pear, honey and green apple aromas. Juicy flavours of pear, blanched almonds and zesty lemon round out this offering. A great accompaniment to grilled fish and seasoned chips, or antipasto and Italian sausage on the barbecue.

With its citrus, pear and nashi aromas, there is a hint of sweetness on the balanced and nicely structured palate. An excellent example. (Philip Rich)
