Still my favourite white wine




My Pinot Grigio... where would I be without my white wine. Actually for those that enjoy white wine, or for those that wanted to always get into it.. most Asian I know prefer a crisp, clean/clear taste in their alcohol. Much like they enjoy Heineken, or Sing Tao, Corona, anything light. For those that like the fruitiness of a chardonnay, a little sugar from a Riesling, try Pinot Grigio. My preferred choice to get the ladies drunk. Its light, crisp, fruity (usually pear/apple), but without the Chardonnay like aftertaste, nor makes you feel bloated after. Takes the bite out of a more acidic, stronger, oakier wine. You can of course pair it with seafood, chicken, whatever the guy on tv says. I just want to get drunk without the carbs/air in beer.

The Gabbiano at your LCBO is around 13.50, and is my all time favourite so far, next to Lindemans from Australia.
