Prince Michel Pinot Grigio 2008

Prince Michel Pinot Grigio 2008 Wine Details
Price: $14.99 per bottle

Description: While the 2008 Pinot Grigio is perenially a crowd pleaser in the tasting room. Decidedly crisp, this refreshingly light wine has mineral notes and a clean cirus character that is reminiscent of Italian Pinot Grigios. Green apple, grapefruit, and pineapple notes lead to a flinty finish. This wine is sure to be a favorite at summer picnics or anytime you serve fresh salads and light meats.

Varietal Definition
Pinot Grigio/Gris:
Pinkish-white variety producing a very crisp white wine. Grown in Oregon, the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, and more and more in California, it shows promise for other cool climates. Also known as Tokay d'Alsace in France, Rulander in Germany, and Pinot Grigio in Italy.
