This elegant Pinot Grigio from the Delle Venezie DOC region represents the quintessential expression of northeastern Italian white wines. The Sartori family, with their long-standing winemaking tradition, brings forth this refreshing and versatile wine that embodies the character of the Veneto region.
Winemaking
The grapes are carefully harvested at optimal ripeness and undergo temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve their delicate aromatic profile. The wine sees no oak treatment, focusing instead on maintaining the pure expression of the Pinot Grigio varietal.
Taste Profile
This wine presents a pale straw color with subtle green reflections. On the nose, it offers delicate aromas of fresh citrus, green apple, and white flowers. The palate is crisp and refreshing, characterized by notes of lemon zest, pear, and a hint of almond on the finish. Its medium-light body and balanced acidity make it an exceptionally approachable wine.
Territory
The Delle Venezie DOC spans across three regions: Veneto, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and Trentino-Alto Adige. The area benefits from a unique microclimate created by the influence of the Alps and the Adriatic Sea. The well-draining soils, combined with significant day-night temperature variations, create ideal conditions for growing Pinot Grigio grapes with optimal flavor development and natural acidity.
