Tasting - Villa Pozzi Pinot Grigio

Name: Villa Pozzi

Variety: Pinot Grigio

Region: Sicily

Country: Italy

Year: NV

Price: $11.99 (retail)



Winery review: Clear to light straw colored, this Pinot Grigio exhibits soft aromatic flavors of perfumed rose and soft honeysuckle that are attractive and indicative of the refreshing and rounded fruit style. The structure of a this wine is well balanced and clean. Wonderfully complemented by a firm and crisp acidic finish. This wine is perfect for sipping on its own, or as an accompaniment to fish, salads and seafood dishes.

My review: This wine reminds me a bit of Sauvignon Blanc with notes of tropical fruit and grass along with some floral hints on the nose. I get a dry, lightly acidic, and light bodied theme on the taste. I also get some fruit on the taste, but nothing really strong; maybe a little lemon peel and kiwi.  I think this wine would go well with a light salad or seafood dishes.  

I had this wine without food.
