Pale straw in color with a mild nose. On the mid palate without food the wine displays some crisp tart, lime and even a hint of smokiness. On the medium length finish the citrus notes and vibrant acidity live on in the mouth. However, we paired it with Alfredo sauce on a butternut squash ravioli and not a chance it was holding it’s own, so be careful what you serve it with. I would give it an 87-88, which , honestly, for this price, I expect more, I won’t be rushing out to grab more. From the LCBO web site, check stock:

… the 2020 Alto Adige Pinot Grigio offers fresh layers of lemon, green apple, kiwi and a hint of summer grass or dried straw. This is an easy-drinking wine with a cheerful and immediate personality that would pair with an epic platter of fried shrimp. However, you also get that touch of extra complexity and tonic freshness that comes easily to the high-altitude wines of the Italian Dolomites. Drink date: 2021-2023. Score – 90.
