Monte Volpe Mendocino County Pinot Grigio
Pinot Grigio has quickly become one of the most popular white grape varieties in the world. This rust-gray tinted skinned grape, enjoyed for centuries, is said to be a mutation of the Pinot Noir grape. However, it seems unsure whether it is a red or white wine grape, hence, grigio, meaning gray. Monte Volpe is the oldest producer of Pinot Grigio in California.
This blend has produced a rich, floral wine with aromas of tropical fruits, cantaloupe melon, and multi-colored Jonathan apple with a hint of wet stone. A lively mouthful of spicy apple and stony minerality is balanced by crisp acidity throughout the finish.

Lovely perfume aromas remind one of ripe melons, honeysuckle in summer, and cherry blossoms in spring. The flavors are bright and delicately sweet. There’s a good balance of fresh acidity that lightens up the complex texture. The succulent flavors are of juicy tangerine, white peaches and just-picked strawberries. All this with an additional hint of lemon-lime and sass that make this a very approachable and fun wine selection.
