Pinot Grigio
Pinot Grigio is actually the same grape as Pinot Gris, the noble grape of Alsace. Northern Italian producers tend to prefer to pick this variety a little earlier in order to retain fresh acidity and more neutral green fruit flavours. When labeled as Pinot Grigio the wine generally refers to this lighter, fresher style.

Kupelwieser Alto Adige Pinot Grigio 2023
From Italy’s northernmost, but highly acclaimed region of Alto Adige, one gets to experience the best of two worlds, with Mediterranean and Alpine climatic conditions coming into play. This wine shows crisp and refreshing Pinot Grigio handcrafted by award-winning winemaker Peter Zemmer. The grapes are sourced from vineyards on the valley floor of the ‘Lowlands’ of Alto Adige. Zemmer’s low-yield approach in the vineyards results in a complex, dry white wine which reveals flavors of citrus and pear with nuances of mineral, all showcased by a lengthy finish.

Tunella Pinot Grigio 2023
The wine has an intense straw yellow color, evolving to a richer yellow with aging. It has a fruity and fragrant nose evoking aromas of warm bread crust and intense perfume of acacia blossom and ripe tropical fruit. The palate echoes the nose and is elegant, medium-bodied with moderate acidity and delicate hints of yeast. A wine with a decisive character.
