2007  Pinot Grigio

Fruit forward bouquet features nectarine and peach aromas. Added notes of kiwi fruit and fig linger with elegant orange blossom fragrance. Palate exhibits a mouthful of peach flavors that evolve into tropical notes of papaya and starfruit. Lingering passion fruit tantalizes the palate until the next sip.
