Crane Lake - Pinot Grigio

Crane Lake
Pinot Grigio
2008
$2.99 - Henry's

I need to start shopping for wine at the Trader Joes and not at the Henrys. I can't get a wine for 2 bucks at Henry's despite the fact that we're in California. The wine came from California, so why the extra $1? Its a travesty.

Anyway, the wine was alright. Fruity, and most definitely sweet. It was served chilled, and thus had very little flavor. I can't stress that enough. Almost no flavor at all. Nothing to really indicate it was wine at all. It was refreshing though, and that's why we bought it. It was warm yesterday, and a nice cool wine after dinner sounded great. It of course went very well with the discussion of trips to the Sierra Nevada, and our commentary on Huell Howser's trip up Half Dome in Yosemite.

So, altogether I'd recommend it. Bit of a headache today though. Can't say its deffinately from the wine. Ok. 3 Thumbs up, and 2 ibuprofin. 3:2... its on the right side of the ratio.
