Wine Pro's Review - 3.5 Stars “Sutter Home Pinot Grigio is super pleasing. With its fresh floral aromas and juicy green and tropical fruit flavors is always in season. The inherent sweetness also is fantastic. It adds a unique creaminess that reminds the best off-dry wines of Alsace. For this reason, only, wine lovers should go ahead and try Sutter Home Pinot Grigio. It is really marvelous being able to enjoy such a treat-of-a-wine. I recommend it.”
Wine Folly - Page 149 mentions white peach, lemon zest, and cantaloupe which I did get from the wine, but those were not the main flavors that came to my mind. It mentions low tannins and body and semi high acidity which definitely characterizes this wine. It also states Pinot Grigio ranges from dry to just plain sweet and I thought this one was pretty sweet.
My Review - I really enjoyed this wine. It was very light and refreshing, without being too dry and was pretty sweet. It was not super flavorful but had nice flavors of pear and white nectarine with some woody aromas. I had this wine with some pecorino romano cheese which complimented the wine nicely.
