That's a quote from one of our future Saturday Sippers when we poured today's wine: Folonari Pink Pinot Grigio 2005, Venezie, Italy. And indeed, all is pink -- screwcap, label, and liquid. Clearly, Folonari wants to appeal to women. A whimsical blonde walks a pink poodle on the label's front, and there's a catchy write-up on the back: "...the fresh aroma and juicy taste of Folonari Pink Pinot Grigio makes life a breeze. The easy screwcap does, too. So your pretty pink nails will stay that way."
We were dubious, but this wasn't a bad wine. Light tannins, touch acidic, dry. We served it with a chicken stir fry and rice, and this pink pinot grigio went well. It's a pleasant end-of-summer wine and only cost $8.
