Cantina Zaccagnini Pinot Grigio, 2010

While browsing the wine isle in the grocery stores, I keep seeing a bottle of wine with a piece of grapevine tied around the neck.  I finally had to give it try. 

Cantina Zaccagnini 2010 Pinot Grigio ($12 at Costco) is from Abruzzi, Italy.  The aroma was lemon and grass.  On my palate the flavor was pear and peach with a mild tart finish grabbing the back of my tongue.  Pairing this wine with food would be easy as it does not have overpowering flavors.  I would not hesitate to recommend this to customers.  

Winemaker's NotesPale yellow with green nuances. A very delicate bouquet, an extremely pleasant aroma with fine, elegant flavor, very fresh and a well-balanced finish.
