Many people have no idea about the amount of Italians in
South American (and no, they weren't part of the Gestapo),
and weirdly enough, I believe that this is my first Pinot
Grigio from Argentina.
This wine is light and delicate, straw-colored, floral
scented, with a demure taste of pineapple and honeysuckle.
If you take your time to savor it thoroughly, you do find a
wonderful amount of citrus and acidity riding on top of a
nice heavier than medium body feel. The finish is sharp at
first, and then subsides to a slowly decreasing crescendo
which takes about fifteen seconds.
While this is not my style of Pinot Grigio, this actually
is a grand slam.
