A great Pinot Grigio.

I am so glad that the folks at Gargiulo allowed me to buy some of this wonderful wine before it's official release.  It's really nice, easy to drink and, I believe, it undeniably expresses the fantastic alluvial soil  in which the grapes are grown.  Medium-bodied, complex, floral, with relatively low alcohol (13.1%), this wine is very quaffable.  Even though it is perhaps made more in the lighter Italian Pinot grigio style, as opposed to  the more robust French Pinot gris manner, it is packaged in an Alsatian-style bottle. Still, this wine displays another, unmistakable note - it is bestowed with a sun-drenched  kiss which is, indisputably, the gift of the warm California sun.
Just love it!
