The Pinot Project Pinot Grigio IGT
2023, Pinot Grigio, Italy

This beautiful Italian Pinot Grigio will stand tall alongside its red counterpart – and like its partner, promises to drink above its weight class at an everyday price point. This wine shows the purity of Pinot Grigio at its core – pears and citrus, unoaked to enhance the unadulterated fruit qualities. Enjoy on its own or with mild cheeses, salmon, grilled chicken, and seafood pasta dishes. The Pinot Project Pinot Grigio was harvested entirely from the prestigious Veneto region of Italy. Harvesting was done at night, to ensure cool temperatures and retain crisp fruit quality. Clusters were fully destemmed prior to pressing. Fermentation took place in temperature controlled stainless steel vats. A cold fermentation was necessary to preserve delicate and fresh fruit flavors. Malolactic fermentation was blocked, and the wine was absolutely not chaptalized or acidified. The finished blend was rested in steel six months before being transferred to glass. (from the vintner)
