Villa Carra 2001 Pinot Grigio (Friuli Grave)

Country: Italy /
Variety: Pinot Grigio Northeastern Italy
Winery: Villa Carra / Friuli Grave

Not a typically fruity Grigio, this one relies more on spices and minerals to make a palate impression. Hints of almond and dried cinnamon start things off, followed by stony, mineral flavors backed by pears and allspice.
