This Pinot Grigio from one of Italy's northernmost wine-growing regions was crisp and refreshing, but not much more.
Eye: Very light gold.Nose: This was the best part of the wine -- fairly fragrant, with scents of pear, earthy stones, and milk.
Mouth: Light and lively, but with a fairly linear, austere flavor profile of minerals, acidity, and Granny Smith apples. Medium length finish.
Score: 83.
Cellar or drink? This style of Italian whites is for early drinking. Bottoms up before 2009.
Price/store: About $13 at Spec's on Holcombe.
