One of my recent tastings was on Banfi San Angelo 2009 Pinot Grigio from Castello Banfi's Estate vineyards, in the southern hills of Montalcino. Italy. This is 100% Pinot Grigio. It had a light citrus flavor, with a hint of spice, and was crisp. It finished with grapefruit pith. Mouth feel was a bit thin. Customers enjoyed it.
Winemaker's Notes: "Colour: light straw yellow.
Bouquet: very fresh and fruity with pear, banana, peach, anise and honey notes.
Taste: rich, full, round and very persistent.
This 100% Pinot Grigio belongs to Castello Banfi estate-bottled single-varietals range.Thanks to the Montalcino microclimate our Tuscan Pinot Grigio adds to the typical aromas of this variety an unusual body, flavour and balance.
Food Pairings: Excellent as aperitif. It accompanies well light dishes and fish in general."
