Tramin Pinot Grigio

Pinot Grigio Alto Adige DOC bottle image

Wine Description

Made from 100% Pinot Grigio from southern Alto Adige. After a gentle pressing, the must is clarified by natural sedimentation and fermented. Refined five months in stainless steel tanks, this is a very typical Italian-styled Pinot Grigio.
