Wine Review: This very pale straw Pinot Grigio from Murphy Goode opens with a gentle white peach, tangerine and grapefruit rind bouquet. It is medium bodied, rather simple and round, with crisp acidity. It displays citrus and peach pit flavors along with mild minerality. Its moderate finish contains hints of pineapple. Enjoy this Pinot Grigio with Maryland crab cakes. - Mark

Winemaker Notes: Made in a style that is light and flavorful. The aromatic Gewürztraminer adds beautiful notes of lychee nut and passion fruit. This a great refreshing wine for a hot summer day while just chillin’ with your friends in the shade of the porch. Pair with a light seafood pasta or with some spicy Thai foods.
