Pinot Grigio DOC delle Venezie 2021

16,00 

Our Pinot Grigio delle Venezie is produced in the town of Custoza in the province of Verona near Lake Garda, from a plot planted with both Pinot Grigio and Trebbianello, typical grape varieties of the Veneto area. We use the facilities of a local Cantina to ferment our own grapes and bottle the wine. Our aim was to produce a benchmark Pinot Grigio of high quality as we have done with all of our Red Wines. We have worked with the vineyard to reduce quantity, select grapes on a deeper level and take the wine to a higher standard.

90% Pinot Grigio, 10% Trebbianello

FERMENTATION:

At a controlled temperature of 18ยฐC.

AGEING:

Aged in stainless steel tanks for 4 months on fine lees โ€œsur lieโ€.

TASTING NOTES:

The primary fruit flavours found in our Pinot Grigio are pear, white nectarine, apple and lime. The wine has faint notes of honey, some honeysuckle and a distinct minerality. Refreshingly dry with brilliant acidity and a bitter almond note on the finish. Very well-balanced and harmonious.

RECOMMENDED FOOD PAIRINGS:

Our Pinot Grigio delle Venezie pairs with light fish dishes, grilled chicken, risottos and shellfish. Light seafood dishes seem to take on more flavour when matched with an equally delicate white wine. Pinot Grigio makes for an excellent aperitivo.
