Villa Sandi Pinot Grigio delle Venezie DOC

Delle Venezie DOC

Villa Sandi Pinot Grigio grapes come from two Villa Sandi estates which are located in Northeastern Italy; the Crocetta Del Montello Estate in the Veneto region and the Spilimbergo Estate, in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. In close proximity to the Piave River, the soil in the Crocetta Del Montello Estate vineyards contain pebbles, stone, sand and some clay, producing grapes which add freshness and pleasant acidity. Located in the flat area of the Fruili Grave, the Spilimbergo Estate vineyards are composed mainly of stone and gravel, producing grapes with more complexity and rich fruity aromatics.

Tasting Notes

Bright straw yellow in color. Floral and fruity notes on the nose evoke memories of the summer hay harvest in the countryside. Dry, round, and mineral on the palate, with good structure and a warm, fruity, well-balanced finish.

The perfect accompaniment for Mediterranean dishes prepared with reef fish and cherry tomatoes. Excellent with prosciutto and cantaloupe or with fresh, creamy cheeses.

The must is obtained through a soft pressing of the grapes in a bladder press. It is then is racked and transferred to temperature-controlled fermentation tanks. The wine remains on its lees for a few months before bottling.

    "Hints of almonds on top of the pears and lemons. This is quite simple and light, with a fresh but rather neutral flavor profile and some bitter almond in the finish. Drink now. Screw cap."
