Winery Review: Cortenova Pinot Grigio 2012 is made from 100% Pinot Grigio. Brilliant straw color with emerald reflections. Fresh and floral bouquet with a hint of pears, apricots and bananas. Fresh and inviting with bright fruit and an easy drinking style with a pleasing hint of almonds in the aftertaste. Pairs well with seafood dishes, risottos with scampi, spaghetti with clams, sole in white wine Perfect also as an aperitif.
My Review: The color of this wine is almost entirely clear. On the nose I smelled sweet grape, strawberry, and fresh squeezed lime. This wine has a very nice bouquet. On the palate this Pinot Grigio is slightly bitter, and medium-dry. It has nice balance, and is refreshing yet not too overpowering. It would be a great aperitif.
