Since the mid 19th century Pinot Grigio is grown in Friuli where it found an ideal environment. The grapes are picked by hand. Then the wine is left to mature for four weeks in bottles which are kept horizontal. After that a wine in straw-yellow colour with light copper-coloured reflections enters daylight. A characteristic, elegant and intensive bouquet enchants the wine gourmet. There is a nice scent of acacia blossom, green nutshells, yellow peaches and golden apples. There are tinges of notes of yeast because of the storage " sur lies ". The wine is luxuriant on the palate, where it spreads out full-bodied and velvetely with a long lasting taste of ripe fruits. Alcoholic content 13%. Perfect with fish, shellfish and white soups. Try this Pinot Grigio with San Daniele ham.
