Sergio Neri, the extra-super winemaker, turned out this PG (Pinot Grigio) that has the basic foundation of an old world Italian Pinot Grigio but with a better texture and a light undercurrent [that exposes itself] of peaches.

I was actually surprised at this wine, simply because I am not a fan of Italian Pinot Grigio, preferring new world styles as well as Alsace and Oregon Pinot Gris releases.

This wine is perfect for seafood and pasta, as well as fresh veggies. I think that this would be great with ceviche as well as some desserts.

This particular's bottle's net proceeds go to an autism, and it bears a special ribbon on it.
