Vivacious Vino - Review of Barefoot Pinot Grigio

Name: Barefoot Pinot Grigio
Variety: 100% Pinot Grigio
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2011
Price: $7.99
Alcohol Content: 12.5% 
With/Without Food: No food

Wine Review: Tart green apple flavors get down with a white peach undertone. Floral blossoms and citrus aromas do the tango. Light-bodied with a bright finish.

My Review: Crisp citrus smell, you can smell the tartness. Taste was tart, you can definitely taste the green apple and maybe lemon and grapefruit. Medium legs, not too fast or slow.

Extra Notes: Did the first tasting with a friend, she loved learning about swirling and sniffing. She actually pulled out the green apple smell before I did! This wine is at first very tart, almost harsh, and then as you continue to drink is sweeter. This is a wine we have quite often, but are now looking into different types of Pinot Grigio!
