*Disclaimer: I received this wine as a sample from Luna Vineyards I honestly would have said that it was a Sauvignon Blanc. And that’s not a bad thing in my humble opinion. Often when I drink a Pinot Grigio my reaction is simply “meh.” Too many times they lack flavor and characteristic and just get [...]

*Disclaimer: I received this wine as a sample from the winery. I seem to have misplaced my photos for this wine. I know I took them, I just can’t find them. If they reappear, I’ll put them up…I do have 3 cameras, so it’s possible they are on one I haven’t cleaned out in a [...]

*Disclaimer: I received this wine as a sample from Terlato Wine Group. Sorry for the radio silence for the last week or so. I was traveling to Philly and San Francisco for work and thought I’d have some internet access other than through my phone, but technological difficulties got in my way. Back on the [...]

*Disclaimer: I received this wine as a sample from F. Wildman. Now, this is what I like to see. And Pinot Grigio is often not my thing. But I’ll give credit where credit is due, and I see this wine available on sale online for $7 and a little pocket change. If $7 is your [...]

*Disclaimer: I received this wine as a sample from Gallo Family Wines I don’t drink much Pinot Grigio, if any. I bet I’ve reviewed less than 5 bottles of it since I started the wine blog 3 years ago. I tend to make the association between it and putting ice cubes in your wine to [...]

*Disclaimer: I received this wine as a sample from Sort This Out Cellars. I’ve been friends on Twitter with stoc, or really Felicia, the personality behind STOC, which stands for “Sort This Out Cellars” for quite some time. Recently she tweeted about taking STOC on the road, and I wondered if they would be coming [...]

The wine for the evening was a 2007 Albino Armani Pinot Grigio. I picked this wine up at Total Wine and More, even though it was more than my $10 limit when I’m there. However, I tasted it while there and figured I’d bring a bottle home. The bottle clocked in at 12.5% alcohol by [...]

*Disclaimer: I received this bottle of wine as part of a blogger trial of Bottlenotes. The bottle was a 2006 Catello Banfi Le Rime Chardonnay-Pinot Grigio. I can’t say I have ever seen such a mix before, but I was intrigued and couldn’t wait to try it. In fact, delinquent blogger that I am, I [...]

Another bottle from my first WineQ shipment of the season, this time a bottle of 2006 Esca Pinot Grigio. The wine hails from Sonoma, cost me $17.99 (free shipping!), and had a real cork closure. Again (becoming habit around here!) Matt tossed the bottle before I could record the alcohol content. You can get this [...]

The wine of the evening, after we came home from dinner was a 2006 Nelson Pinot Grigio. A great bottle of wine for a hot summer evening’s sipping. I can’t find a picture that I took of this one, but that might be because I cleaned my camera out in order to take many photos [...]
