Wine Enthusiast:  Rated as Very good: a wine with special qualities. "Round and juicy, featuring peach and light citrus tones, this is balanced and bright, with a touch of white pepper on the finish. Drink now." Oct 2011

Winery:  "Colour: straw yellow with fresh green reflections. Bouquet: fruity, fragrant and harmonious.
Taste: fresh, floral, full and appropriately acidic.
This wine is Banfi’s perfect interpretation of youthful white wines. The Chardonnay imparts roundness, while the Pinot Grigio adds crispness to this fresh and easy-to-drink wine. Ideal as an aperifitif or as a perfect partner of fish dishes.

Wired For Wine:  As we're planning for all of the entertaining on the horizon, we're keeping this Banfi Toscana Le Rime Pinot Grigio close at hand.  It is terrific with most any appetizer on the lighter side, or just as the perfect floral aperitif with delectable hints of citrus.   At this price, it's a must-have wine.  Pour your first glasses of this Italian white with a platter of Asian spoons filled with a sesame salmon tartare with just a touch of wasabi oil. Un inizio magnifico. Make sure you've got more bottles on ice because this Le Rime goes down very smoothly.  Its bright balance, light, fragrant fruit, lovely acidity and fresh nature allow it to pair with everything from chicken to fish and seafood, roast pork and all kinds of salads.  The richness of garlic and herb pan drippings with crisp-roasted chicken is beautifully offset by the impeccable acidity of this Tuscan Pinot Grigio.  If it's pasta you're craving, make it crab linguine with basil, lemon and a pinch of chile.  Roasted salt-and sage-packed pork loin is delicious with the whisper of white pepper in this Banfi.  Open another bottle and nibble on some smoked mozzarella.   Good luck getting anybody to go home, winelovers!
