Tasting - Colutta Pinot Grigio Skin Contact


Name:
Colutta Pinot Grigio Skin Contact

Variety: Pinot Grigio

Region: Friuli Colli Orientali

Country: Italy

Year: 2021

Price: $17

Wine Critic review: "Hawthorn and ripe green-apple aromas mingle together on this medium-bodied white. On the round savory palate, tangy acidity lifts honeydew melon and ripe Bartlett pear before a fennel finish." -Kerin O'Keefe https://www.winemag.com/buying-guide/colutta-2018-pinot-grigio-friuli-colli-orientali/

Wine Folly: pg.149 general Pinot Gris- Wine Folly lists aromas of white peach, lemon zest, cantaloupe, raw almond, and crushed gravel. Light fruits definitely shined through in this wine. I did not get any hints of almond or gravel. To me it smelled mostly like peach.

My Review: A very refreshing wine to have on a hot, sunny Saturday! I thought it was very crisp and fruity. I would love to try it again chilled and maybe served with white fish. I recommend this wine to anybody who is looking for something light and clean to sip on!
