Tasting - Santa Julia Pinot Grigio

Name:  Santa Julia Pinot Grigio
Variety:  100% Pinot Grigio
Region:  Mendoza
Country:  Argentina
Year:  2012
Price:  $8.95

Winery Review:  Light and clean, which compared to other Argentine Pinot Grigios is not something to dismiss. Feels solid and punchy, with orange and mango flavors. Has nice overall clarity and balance, with a citrusy finish.

My Review:  In the wine glass this wine was a light yellow color.  On this nose this wine smelled like flowers and oranges.  It was very crisp and light on the palate.  This Pinot Grigio tasted very fruity.  I was able to catch hints of pear, honey, and citrus flavors.  There was a slightly acidic finish.  This was a very pleasant Pinot Grigio.

I did not drink this wine with food.
