Borgo Conventi Pinot Grigio
Collio DOC, Friuli Venezia Giulia
Tasting Notes
Straw yellow in color with possible coppery highlights. On the nose it is fragrant, layered and concentrated with notes of ripe pear and spring flowers that unfold to reveal a subtle end note of bread crust. In the mouth it is elegant and supple with savory characteristics. It is well balanced and uncompromising with a fairly long aromatic finish.
Food Pairings
Goes well with fish-based starters, crustaceans and mollusks, fresh egg pastas, white-meat dishes and fried fish.
Winemaking Notes
Fermentation: The grapes are directly pressed without any maceration on the skins. Temperature-controlled fermentation, activated by selected yeasts, takes place in stainless steel tanks for about ten days.
Aging: Once fermentation is completed the wine remains on the fine lees until spring, when it is bottled.
