Winemaker Notes:
Made of select 100% Pinot Grigio, and having wonderful character and structure, this wine displays a pure straw color with golden reflections. On the nose it explodes with a pleasant bouquet of citrus fruit that is wide, full, and persistent. On the palate the delicious citrus flavors merge with accents of minerals and florals to produce a bolder, richer version of this classic wine. The bright, crisp, full flavors are achieved by having longer contact with the skins during fermentation, which is the old world style of making Pinot Grigio.
This wine may be enjoyed for 2-3 years during which time it will retain all its freshness.
Pairing:
Pairs well with fish, shellfish, roasted white meats, poultry, pasta, and simply by the glass.
Pinot Grigio, also known as Pinot Gris, is the grape that can't decide what it is - the skins can be from greyish blue to brownish pink; sometimes they look black, sometimes white.
