Tasting - Takutai Pinot Gris

Name: Takutai Pinot Gris
Variety: Pinot Gris
Region: Nelson
Country: New Zealand
Year: 2009
Price: $21.00
Shop Review: "Since this wine weights in at 14%, the fruit was clearly very ripe. That ripeness is reflected in the flavors as well, which feature nectarine and honey accented by hints of white pepper. It's full bodied and lush, with a long finish that mingles the sensations of sweet and spicy."
My Review: The color of this wine was even more golden-looking than the last one. It kind of reminded me of pee. It had a strong pear scent, with hints of pineapple and other Dole fruit cup fruits. I really enjoyed the smell of it. It also tasted good, it was both floral and sweet. Would probably drink this wine again. Was not paired with any food.
