My new favorite summer wine
I love my local wine shop. Chris knows me and knows I know there is NO REASON to ever spend more than $15 for a really good bottle of wine. I actually try to keep it below $12. When I go in there, I tell him to pick for me, then I add a few of my favorites and I'm all set. Last week I told him it was summer, so I needed to stock up on whites. I was only half paying attention to the ones he was pulling off the shelf, but I do remember he pulled two bottles of this one out and told me I had to have it.
Re Teodorico Pinto Grigio is my perfect summer wine, I think. I'm a dry wine girl, especially in warm weather, and this one is so delicate and light, I literally drank down a glass yesterday like water. The nose is fresh and clean with just the slightest hint of pear, IMO. It wouldn't be suitable for anything heavier than a broiled fish fillet or chicken breast, but I do mostly salads in summer anyway.
I'll be going back to get a case.
