Esperto Pinot Grigio 2010 (about $12)






About the Wine:  I have written about Pinot Grigio several times before.  It is the biggest seller among dry wines in the summer, being lighter and easier drinking that Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc.

About THIS Wine:  Esperto is straw colored with a clear rim.  Acidic citrus is prominent on the nose with hints of musk.  Lemon and orange flavors are present on a moderately acidic palate and the citrus flavors linger in the finish.

Drinking This Wine:  This is a little too acidic for a sipping wine.  It would be good with a fruit platter.

Overall Impression:  The wine is cheap and it is a good representation of Pinot Grigio.  It is reasonable for the price.
