Timothy Olson Pinot Grigio Napa Valley 2013
About the wine
Summer favorite
- Bone dry, fruity and racy like an Italian Pinot Grigio -- more serious than the 2012 in just about every way.
- Last vintage was a lovely sweetie and more playful, but the Angels said they wanted a more grown up Pinot Grigio and Tim delivered.
- There's not a lot of this because it's very rare to find this grape grown in Napa at all -- this is a special treat.
