2017 Terlan "Tradition" Pinot Grigio Review
My dad is really good at finding weird things and saying, “DRINK THIS OR I’LL MURDER YOU” and it ending up ok. For a grouchy, old dude he's got quite the palate. This is a wine out of a small commune in northern Italy that also puts out tons of asparagus. I'm sure that will be a trivia question in your life very soon. There are some absolutely fantastic wines coming out of this place and I just happened to be visiting my parents when they decided to open it.
Terlan is actually not terribly far from where my parents lived / where my mom is from. If you would like to know more about my parents just shoot me a message and I'll tell you everything about them including their social security numbers. I was never able to visit the town but the next time I'm back in the motherland I'll definitely be stopping by.
In da nose I got cantaloupe and fresh peaches while in da mouf I got melon and and the finish of green tea. Pinot Grigio is just one of those wines that is easy sipping and extremely satisfying no matter when - this wine is no different. I think I blinked and the bottle was gone because we don't f--- around.
If you can find this bottle give it a good what for. Also if you find other bottles from Terlan then snatch it up and I'd be shocked if you hated it. Unless you are a simpleton and like garbage bum wine.
