The Fetească Regală grape is a naturally occurring cross that was originally discovered in Târnave in the 1920's.  Silver in color with some copper hues and slight gold, clear and bright.  The nose has minerals, slight decayed peach, and acacia flowers.  Medium bodied and slightly viscous.  On the palate, peaches and minerals.  Long finish.  The first reaction on tasting this is that it is different.  Unique.  It takes some adjustment, but it is enjoyable and a nice value.

This is a varietally correct, solid Pinot Grigio, that easily could have been from Italy.   Silver in color with copper hues, clear and bright.  The nose has minerals with a touch of cantaloupe.  Viscous with ever so slight residual sugar.  Very refreshing.  On the palate, lots of minerals with yellow grapefruit and lemon.  Long finish.  This is a great value if you are able to find this at retail.  Drink over the next year.  Nice on its own and will work with lighter foods.   

Fun to try this at age 22.  Still drinking well.  The nose is more about minerality but a bit of peach and slight dried floral note.  Light bodied.  Slightly oily texture.  On the palate, this has some vibrancy if a bit past prime.  Peach and minerals.  Enough acidity.  Nice finish.  These should be consumed earlier than later at this point.  It drinks nicely on its own and worked at the end of a meal to wake up the palate.
