Oyster Bay Pinot Grigio 2012
Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandI'm surprised by the freshness of this wine and the lack of sugar which tends to plague NZ pinot gris, perhaps they really meant to make a grigio in the Italian style. The wine is fresh with lemon/dried herbs but low extract and a touch watery in the finish. A simple gulp-able summer white that probably needs a price reduction to match its style and intensity.Tasted: 09 March 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | |
