Generic Tasting Notes This straw-coloured Pinot Grigio is rich and round with distinct floral notes on the nose. On the palate it shows honeyed, nutty flavours balanced by crisp, lemony acidity. A top-notch Pinot Grigio at an unusually modest price. Producer Notes 100% Pinot Grigio. Produced from grapes grown in Valle dei Laghi, a valley with a sub-Mediterranean climate, in fertile well-drained soils. Grapes underwent soft pressing and fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of 20ºC. The wine was matured in stainless steel tanks for 4 months and subsequently bottled. Refined but intense nose with distinct floral notes which will develop into a pleasant bouquet of dry hay when mature. Medium bodied on the palate with a hint of acidity which gives a certain freshness. Great with fish soups, seafood risotto, baked fish and cold white meats. Vinification Vinification is carried out off the skins and the must is obtained from a soft crushing of the whole bunches, to prevent the pink colour of the skins from being extracted. Selected yeast and a controlled temperature of 20 degrees C are used to aid fermentation. Maturation for 4 months in stainless steel vats before bottling. (6 x 75 cl)
