Scarpetta - Pinot Grigio
$ 403.20
Grapes: Pinot Grigio
Region: Italia / Veneto / Friulli
Type: Light-bodied white wine
Scarpetta Pinot Grigio showcases some of the best sites in Friuli-Venezia Giulia for this aromatic varietal — starting with the light, gravely soils of the Grave region. This gives it a crisp, clean minerality. Additionally, 30% of the Pinot Grigio is planted on "Ponca" soil in the Colli Orientali on steep hillsides. The combination of the Grave and Colli Orientali produces a wine which has body, bright acidity, and great minerality.

Ageing: Six months on its lees in stainless steel.
Tasting Notes:
Color: Light straw color with a hint of salmon.
Nose: Stone fruits and melon.
Palate: Melon and stone fruits with minerals and medium body.
Food pairing: Light grilled fish, shellfish, vegetarian, mushrooms.
