How good is it to discover an everyday imported Grigio that rocks its $20 price tag! It’s a case of right grapes, right place, right price. Citrus to the fore in a lifted scent of orange blossom, grapefruit, lemon, lime with acacia and honeysuckle. The palate’s packing tangy lemon notes, grapefruit pith and quince enhanced artfully by spices – a touch of ginger, mace – and spiced apple. The tangy Grigio quality is a real attraction together with the chalky texture. Acidity is brisk – just the way we like young Grigio – and the finish is soft and smooth.
