Tramin Pinot Grigio

Pinot Grigio Alto Adige DOC bottle image

Wine Description

Made from 100% Pinot Grigio from southern Alto Adige. After a gentle pressing, the must is clarified by natural sedimentation and fermented. Refined five months in stainless steel tanks, this is a very typical Italian-styled Pinot Grigio.

The 2008 Pinot Grigio is an unusually round, soft wine, with beautiful aromatics, gorgeous depth in its fruit, laser-like clarity and a long, inviting finish.

Displays apple and honey aromas, with hints of cream. Full-bodied, with green apple character and a bright finish.
