Acclaim
“The wine was fermented in all stainless steel and with a short fermentation process. The result is a fresh, bright and fruity wine. The aromas are soft on this wine, but it reveals some pear, peach, citrus and floral aromas. Vibrant and slightly tart peach, lemon and pear flavors give the wine a nice palate. It’s bright and refreshing. Citrus lingers on the finish, along with a slight salinity. The mouthfeel is good….Overall it’s a nice wine.”

“Recently I sampled some canned wine from Stella, and a bottle of their Pinot Grigio Terre Siciliane IGT 2016. Don't let the low price put you off. Look for pears and citrus, medium body, with bright acidity, very clean finish. A 100 percent Pinot Grigio on sale under $8 is worth looking into….Stella's Pinot Grigio comes in a 250ml 4-pack (equals 1 1/3 bottles) that goes for around $13. It is every bit as good as the bottled product with the added facility of not being in glass. A wise choice for the pool, beach or a hard patio.”
