Bandit Pinot Grigio 2006
(about 1 year ago)Note: this is a tetra-pak wine (1.0 liter) Color is almost clear. The nose is apples, honeydew melons and pears (very fruity). The taste is also very fruit-driven with the same apples, melons and pears, with the addition of some really nice lemony zest: medium acidity leaves this feeling very crisp in your mouth, despite being somewhat sweet. The finish is short, but pleasant. Overall very refreshing.

(14 days ago)Definite apple peel aroma, maybe just a hint of red fruit. My fiancee suggests hints of new band-aid or the rubber bands found on vegetables. Anyone else pick that up? I could maybe see some rubber band smell. Great Citrus-y Fruit-y wine. Maybe a tad too sweet, but I like it. Definitely not a box wine that has to be choked down. It's one to savor and if I had only tasted pinot grigios in the price range, this would be mid-90's easily. (Anyone ever sort a cork'd search by ratings? Major score inflation everywhere. Stop giving wine's 100s! Please!) On my starving student budget, this is the new go-to white and I'm recommending it to family and friends.
