Name: Mogen David, Concord
Variety: Pinot Grigio
Region: California
Country:United States
Year: N/A
Price: $7
Winery Review: Mogen David Concord is full of dark berry fruit flavors with a smooth mouthfeel. Serve chilled for a classic American taste, or with your favorite mixer - club soda, lemon lime soft drink or ginger ale.
My review: I enjoyed this wine. It reminded me of drinking grape juice when I was little. It didn't have a very strong aftertaste. It seemed more like juice than wine. I drank this without food.

Tasting - "Vandori, Pinot Grigio"
Name: Vandori, Pinot Grigio
Variety: Pinot Grigio
Region: Italy
Country:Italy
Year: 2016
Price: $7
Winery Review: Vandori Pinot Grigio is a very pleasant and easy to drink medium bodied wine showing citrus aromas and presenting flavors of apples and pears. Its refreshing characteristics can be enjoyed before dinner or with light dishes such as pasta, grilled fish and chicken.
My review: I liked this wine, although it was drier than I normally like. It reminded me of apples. I really liked that it wasn't too overpowering for a dry wine. I drank it with some leftover fried chicken strips, which was not the best idea because the chicken's seasoning did not go well with the apple aftertaste. It made the chicken seem rather dry.

Tasting - "Gallo Family, Sweet Peach"
Name: Gallo Family, Sweet Peach
Variety: Non-Grape Wines
Region: N/A

Winery Review: This sweet light to medium-bodied wine has flavours of juicy peach, citrus, pineapple and orange blossom, which complement a crisp, refreshing finish.
My review: This wine tasted to me like the peach ring candies. That artificial peach flavor, with sugar. I love those candies, so I really enjoyed this wine.
