connoisseurs, this racy white is made from high

and flinty mineral note lingers on the close.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
Score: 91Vintage 2020Vinous MediaThe 2020 Pinot Grigio is smoky and intense, with crushed apple giving way to hints of flint and lime. This is a juicy expression with a lovely inner sweetness balanced by a note of candied lime, as salty minerals form toward the close.
