“This is not a Pinot Grigio for the faint of heart. This wine is very different from its fellow Italian counterparts. When you think of Pinot Grigio, you think of it as light and approachable. That is not the case with this wine. The reason is that this is a French, Alsatian style that is known for being spicier and full-bodied. A magnificent wine that has great acidity and a complex, yet well-rounded flavor profile. This wine can be paired with so many different foods such as game, veal, pork and poultry which are supposedly better suited to red. No need to beg for this French Pinot Grigio! "
