Woodbridge Pinot Grigio Review and a Recipe

I

I have sampled a number of Woodbridge Wines by Robert Mondavi.  I love them.  They are reasonable priced wines, but they also taste great.  They have been in the wine business for about 30 years.  They offer a selection of wines that includes reds, whites and much more.  They pretty much offer something for everyone.




I love Woodbridge's Pinot Grigio.  This is a really light and crisp wine.  It is great because it's smooth and it is easy to drink too.  This is great paired with a variety of foods too.  I personally love it with poultry or pork.  It is a great wine for the Spring and Summer too because it's very light.  I like it paired with fruit, cheese and bread when I am having a light meal.  This wine is also great to create some fun cocktails too.  How do you use wine to create your own fun drinks?  

Woodbridge's Pinot Grigio is perfect to create a Blood Orange Fizz. Yum!  This recipe is compliments of Krista Simmons.  It is the perfect addition to any Spring and Summer party.  It is a light and refreshing cocktail that is sure to please your guests.  Did I mention that the best part is that it is super easy to make?
