Rate and review Colio Estate Pinot Grigio 2007


Excellent wine.
This is a fresh, easy and some what fruity wine that’s very well balanced. I enjoyed the pear taste followed by a nice clean lemony finish. This one is very easy to sip on and enjoy.
The nose is a bit mild, left me wondering if I was going to like this. Don’t let the mild bouquet fool you as this was quickly forgotten as soon as I tasted the wine.
This wine is made from grapes grown in Essex County, on a vineyard near the shores of Lake Erie. Excellent wine to sip on this summer or bring along to a picnic.
