Barefoot Pinot Grigio Champagne, non-vintage.

This is really not what I think of as a true Champagne. The most common varietals used in the making of champagne are Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, both of which produce very different flavors from the Pinot Grigio Barefoot has used here.

That being said, this particular bottle drinks like a very simple Pinot Grigio, but of course, bubbly. Peach and lemon on the nose, with the lemon flavors strengthening on the palate and a strong, crisp, dry finish.

This bottle has been sitting in the fridge for a while, so it was nicely chilled, making for a refreshing drink on a warm evening.

If you’re looking for something to enjoy on a hot summer day but don’t want to spend a bundle, this Pinot Grigio Champagne from Barefoot will do the trick for only $6.99 a bottle (at BevMo). Having something like this on hand in the fridge is a must for those impromptu, and not so impromptu, summer get-togethers.
