Castello Banfi LE RIME Chardonnay Pinot GrigioToscana IGT

The soft rounded flavour of the Pinot Grigio combines with the firmer structure of the Chardonnay to give a balanced weighty wine. (12 x 37.5 cl)

Considerable investment ensures Banfi produce a top quality product, this blend has the fragrance and freshness of Pinot Grigio balanced by the weight and structure of Chardonnay. Definitely not a neutral Italian white wine. A blend of 30% Pinot Grigio, 70% Chardonnay has developed a pale straw yellow colour. Here the fruit-forward aromas with notes of tropical fruits, pear and citrus are enriched by floral notes. On the palate, the wine is full bodied, lively and crisp. (12 x 75 cl)

A ripe and textured Pinot Grigio with a good length and elegance on the finish. (6 x 75 cl)

In 1978 John and Harry Mariani, successful American importers, joined forces with Italy's leading enologist, Ezio Rivella; their objective was to produce top-quality wine on a scale never before attempted in Italy. Conte Placido is a member of the Banfi stable of wines and owe their phenomenal popularity to choice grapes grown in some of the world's premier wine regions. The brand inherited its name from a famous Sienese family, the Placidi, on whose vast estate some of the Placido vines grow today. The land was awarded to the family back in the Middle Ages and remained in the possession of its descendants until modern times. A fresh,slightly sappy nose is deliciously balanced by a texture of soft fruit and clean zippy finish. (6 x 75 cl)
