About PINOT GRIGIO ROSÉ

The wine is produced from a selection of estate plots of Pinot Grigio in our vineyards at the foot of the Dolomites. Here silt and dolomite rock create unique soils, which along with the valley’s micro-climates create excellent conditions for ripening grapes. These natural conditions create an optimal balance between acidity and freshness.

Sustainably farmed grapes are hand-picked at the end of August / early September. After a soft pressing and destemming, the must is cooled to 12°C and left in contact with the skins directly in the press for between 8-10 hours. After a soft pressing of the skins to a maximum of 0.4 bars to limit the extraction of tannins. The must is then filtered and fermentation begins with selected yeasts at 16-18°C, continuing for approximately 12 days. Then the wine is set to rest on its lees for 3-4 months before bottling.

Colour: delicate copper pink.
Fragrance: red berries aromas mixed with hints of citrus fruits such as pink grapefruit and delicate floral notes.
Flavour: pleasant minerality with a lively and refreshing acidity.

Ideal as an aperitif but also excellent complement to any vegetable-based Mediterranean dish, goat cheese and almonds, raw and oven-baked seafood including tuna, salmon or prawns.
