Tasting - Trattoria Busa Alla Torre Da Lele


Name: Trattoria Busa Alla Torre Da Lele Pinot Grigio
Variety: Pinot Grigio
Region: Veneto
Country: Italy
Year: NV
Price: $7.95

Winery Review: Named after the famous restaurant in Italy! This is their house white wine! Coppery color from extended skin contact, round and rich texture with juicy melon aromas and flavors with a sweet fennel note on the ultra smooth finish. Great value Grigio! Drink now.

My Review: Pale yellow in color, this Pinot Grigio had a delightful, appley fresh aroma (almost like an apple orchard after a spring rain). Any melon components I might have missed on the smell, I definitely announced their presence on the palate. Given my negative predisposition to melon flavors, this wine was not my favorite.

I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
