Barefoot Pinot Grigio


Today was hot and humid in Kansas City...  making it hard to believe we had snow on May 5. As I ran errands for 7 hours, I kept thinking about the Barefoot Pinot Grigio I had chilling in the fridge. I finally made it home, uncorked the wine, poured and ... ahhhhh. 

Just as the name and logo suggests, this is a great wine for all the activities that summer brings, as well as the fresh salads and fruits that are available for the table. It's so light, it's practically clear in color. On the nose, there's salty grapefruit. The grapefruit flavor follows into the taste, combining perfectly with the crisp and sweet flavors of pear and apple. 

Only 12.5% alcohol makes it perfect for poolside and won't interfere with your horseshoe throw. The finish is so clean, it almost feels like I just had a breath mint. It's inexpensive, too!
