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: This was a crisp, enjoyable white with a distinctly citrus nose. There was lemon juice, honeydew, and tangerines in aroma. The palate was smooth and cool, with most notably melons. I was also getting some pineapple and peach. The surface texture was smooth with a cold, metallic component and a long finish with notes of persimmon. This should be enjoyed with garlic and peppered chicken or salmon, or a light vinaigrette salad.
