Kirkland Signature Friuli Grave Pinot Grigio Tasting Review

 



Name: Kirkland Signature Friuli Grave Pinot Grigio

Variety: Pinot Grigio

Region: Friuli Venezia Giulia

Country: Italy

Year: 2021

Price: $6.99 from Costco


Online review: 3.5/5

Nov. 2022

User: AJ Chou

Clear pale greenish yellow. Aromatic green grass, citrus, lemon zest, lime peel and a little creamy cheese in nose. Dry, medium long crispy acidity with citrus, fresh youth tangerine, crispy grape fruit white floral and fresh herbaceous in palate. Good balance medium fresh crispy finish. Perfect price performance choice.

  • Smell: yeast, very bready, gingerbread, a small amount of cat pee

  • Taste: acidic, lemon, almond, tastes better with smaller sips


My Review: 6/10

  • First sip really got me, I did not expect this specific taste from it after reading the bottle

  • Gets better the more you drink it

  • I wouldn't say it was refreshing but it is more refreshing than a red wine

  • Not bad but I wouldn't buy this again, definitely drinkable but only half way enjoyable
