About the Wine: Pinot Grigio is the go to summer drink for many dry drinkers. Not as heavy as most Chardonnays and not as sweet as most Rieslings, Pinot Grigio is one of the classic wines to enjoy poolside on a hot day, commonly known as "Patio Pounders."
About THIS Wine: The wine is hay colored with no distinct rim and is slightly luminous in the glass, more or less the description of what Pinot Grigio should look like. Citrus and peach are prominent on the nose with hints of mango. Mild citrus makes a nice palate with an acidic finish. Pinot Grigios are typically acidic and I found that the acidity in the finish rather than the palate made for a more flavorful and pleasant drinking experience.
Drinking This Wine: Enjoy with grilled chicken or white fish. This is definitely a food wine.
Overall Impression: Eighteen dollars is a little high, but the wine is very good. Boira is reasonable for the price.
