The Formentini dal Collio winery, with its long history and dedication to viticulture, offers a Pinot Grigio that stands out for its finesse and complexity, the result of meticulous attention in the vineyard and cutting-edge winemaking techniques.

This Pinot Grigio has a brilliant straw yellow color, with greenish reflections that underline its freshness. The nose opens with a delicate but intense aromatic bouquet, characterized by notes of white pulp fruit, such as pear and green apple, enriched by floral nuances and a light mineral touch that reflects the rich terroir of origin.

In the mouth, the wine reveals a balanced structure, supported by a lively acidity which enhances its freshness and drinkability. The texture is soft and enveloping, with a palate that finds the olfactory sensations of fruit and flowers, leading to a persistent and clean finish, with a pleasant note of bitter almond that invites another sip.

The Collio DOC Pinot Grigio by Formentini dal Collio is versatile at the table, capable of elegantly accompanying a wide range of dishes, from light appetizers to fish dishes, risottos and fresh cheeses. Its elegance and complexity also make it suitable as a refined aperitif, capable of stimulating the palate and preparing it for the pleasures of the meal.

Through this Pinot Grigio, Formentini dal Collio celebrates the richness and diversity of the Collio, offering a wine that is a pure expression of the territory and of the enological passion that animates the cellar.
