This wine is somewhere in the middle between the classical Italian Pinot Grigio and the Alsatian Pinot Gris.  It delivers hints of both melon and lemon, with a citrus aspect that quickly drops off, but with a lasting finish more like lemongrass.  Actually, the finish reminds me a little of a Bordeaux white.

Our Mission: The Black Winer strives to expose African Americans [and others] to wines, without the flair, stuffiness, and airs of elitism and snobbery that you get from sommeliers and high level wine enthusiasts. We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
