Pinot Grigio

This is a richly styled Pinot Grigio produced from low-yielding vineyards in the Alto Adige DOC. The vineyards, located at the foothills of the Dolomite mountains, enjoy warm days and cool nights which preserve the wine’s acidity and freshness to produce a well-balanced wine.

Tasting Notes

This wine displays a straw color with aromas of citrus fruits, pears, apples, and white flowers. The rich and velvety texture of the wine is balanced by refreshing acidity leading to a long, lingering finish.

Food Pairing

Fantastic as an aperitif but also a versatile food wine that can complement anything from a simple salad of lightly-dressed greens to richer dishes like seafood quiche.
