2005 Clos du Bois Pinot Grigio

After a sunday night of bowling and Korean food, the roommates and I popped open a bottle of 2005 Clos Du Bois Pinot Grigio. For a cheap $9 bottle, it wasn't pretty good, but it had a shorter lifespan than donuts at the counter. Don't get me wrong, it tastes great after you've let it breathe for a few minutes, but not long after, it goes downhill. Wayyy downhill.

At its peak, it's pretty refreshing, and doesn't have that same bitter taste that it does straight out of the bottle. It's mildy acidic with a kind of citrus flavor. After leaving a glass out for more than, say, 10 minutes at room temperature, it already begins to take on a sour acidity, so be warned. Probably better served (and preserved) chilled.
