Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This estate boasts five centuries of winemaking tradition and is one of the most-recognized ambassadors of Collio wine. The Pinot Grigio has almond and vanilla extract over fruity aromas and a crisp, filling presence. Imported by Frederick Wildman & Sons, Ltd.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This Pinot Grigio has a nice heft to it. The lime, lemon peel and apple flavors are lively and full. A biscuity, bread-dough note on the nose and palate adds some dimension. A hint of bitter almond livens up the finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is the first vintage of this blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc, named after the 16th-century abbess Rylint Formentini. Peppery in character, with rich, complex fruit, it has citric flavors, along with a sense of structure and acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Slightly gingery on the nose, but marked more by fresh greens and limes. Its relatively lightweight flavors of apples and limes are joined by an herbal tang on the short but refreshing finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here is a nicely executed Pinot Grigio with a slightly bigger, more succulent style than your standard Pinot Grigio. Mature fruit aromas of peach, honey and melon make for a nice balance against the wine’s natural freshness.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This fresh Pinot Grigio tastes great with pasta salad or grilled eggplants and zucchini. The wine is fresh and smooth with fresh acidity and linear notes of mineral, stone fruit and citrus.

A wood-aged 100% Chardonnay, named after the wind that blows regularly in the region. It is citric, crisp, with wood flavors showing through. Spice and vanilla balance with flavors of tropical fruits and a touch of honey.
