Tasting - Crane Lake Pinot Grigio

Crane Lake Pinot Grigio with venison burger dinner
Name: Crane Lake Pinot Grigio
Variety: 100% Pinot Grigio
Region: Ceres, California
Country: USA
Year: 2012
Price: $5.93

Winemaker's Notes:
Light in color, this Pinot Grigio has aromas of pineapple and pear. Complex flavors include green apple, citrus and melon. Clean soft finish.

My Review: You get what you pay for. This Pinot Grigio was very light and lacked much flavor. There were subtle hints of citrus fruit. Did not linger on the tongue. The wine paired nicely with the venison burger and kept a light note to the rather heavy meal. For the price, I would buy this wine again.
