Crisp acidity saves the day for this ripe, fruity young Pinot Grigio. It has forward flavors of pineapples, limes, kiwis and vanilla that are almost, but not quite, sweet. Then the acidity kicks in, drying and cleansing the finish.——S.H.(4/1/2010)—— 86

Here’s an unoaked wine that will be great as a cocktail sipper, or with a wide range of foods, from veggies with a garlicky dip to roasted chicken or broiled halibut. It’s bone dry and very crisp in acidity, with interesting flavors of citrus fruits, figs, green melons, wildflowers, vanilla and dusty spices.——S.H.(7/1/2008)—— 87

PG’s are rare from this appellation. This one’s well-acidified, leaving a bright and crisp mouthfeel to the citrus, melon and fig flavors. But be forewarned, the wine’s too sweet, almost off-dry.——S.H.(2/1/2006)—— 83
