Rex-Goliath Pinot Grigio

This post is a bit over due ... Last weekend I poured Rex-Goliath Pinot Grigio ($7) from California.  Customers enjoyed this wine.  This had a tropical aroma of pineapple and banana.  The flavor banana and lemon.  Crisp and refreshing.  This would be the perfect pairing with seafood.  

Winemaker's Notes:  Our Pinot Grigio expresses abundant citrus and lemon-lime aromas with layers of fresh stone fruit, sprinkled with intense floral and lavender notes.  Bright and racy acidity is beautifully balanced with fresh citrus, leading to a crisp, refreshing finish.  A number of foods would be great with this wine.  Try it with a bowl full of steamed mussels in a broth made with Rex-Goliath Pinot Grigio, garlic, onions and butter.  Or for a hot summer afternoon, fresh fish tacos are an amazing partner.
