Sunday night is leftover night and there aren't many varietals left here. I guess tonight is Pinot Gris (in Italy Pinot Grigio) night.I have had a few Pinot Grigio and have typically found them to be simple but refreshing wines, perfect ice cold on a warm summer day. Unfortunately tonight's bottle has an unusual nose, a funky (almost corked) taste and a strong sour finish. 3 months ago I would have written this off as "just another $8 bottle" but this quest has proven to me that a sub $10 bottle can be excellent. My glass will not be refilled tonight (at least with this wine).
