Sun Goddess – Pinot Grigio White Wine

Fascinating with its natural blush color, intriguing with its powerful bouquet, delightfully crisp and refreshing: the original Pinot Grigio.

Beautiful pinkish tinge. The bouquet is intense and complex, with hints of fruits (peach, melon and blackberries). On the palate it is full-bodied and velvety, with a pleasant acidity, soft tannins and a finish rich in mineral sensations. With origins in Italy’s northeastern province of Friuli Venezia Giulia, Ramato (Italian for “auburn” or “copper”) wines are produced by macerating Pinot Grigio grape must with its skins. The skins’ pink hue gives the wines color from a semi- pale pink to dark orange, depending on maceration time.

Harvest: the grapes are picked at the moment of perfect ripeness, normally at the beginning of September.

Ideal serving temperature: 10-12°C

Pairings: perfect for aperitif / sipping time but also very food-friendly. Particularly, it goes excellently with hors d’oeuvres, charcuterie, soups and risottos.
