I finally bottled this Pinto Grigio wine and my wife loves it. I'm not a big white wine drinker, so I made it for her. She was amazed at how clear and crisp it is. It's truly a high end wine. The wine has a little bit of a "stained" color which I assume is from the oak chips, but it's very clear nonetheless. We aged it in the glass carboy for about 4 months and now will continue to age it in the bottle after it was filtered and bottled. I expect this will only get better in 6 months. I recommend this wine! Please be aware you need the 6.5 gallon fermenter for this wine due to the grapes. I wish it came with it's own grape bag, The cheesecloth I purchased wasn't quite large enough and a few came out during fermentation. It all worked out in the end though. I'm happy.

Crisp, slightly fruity white
Even at quite cool temperature, fermentation was even and complete. The finished wine light fruity taste and a crisp finish.
