Pinot Grigio Ramato

Denomination

Delle Venezie Pinot Grigio DOC
Description

Pinot Grigio vinified according to the old tradition in the Republic of Venice. They must remain in contact with the skins for about 12 hours, acquiring a particular copper colour. It stands out for its minerality due to its area of origin.
Vinification

After the clusters are de-stemmed, the berries macerate for 12 hours on the skins, giving the wine its quite distinctive coppery hue, and are then gently pressed. The must is gravity-settled for clarity, then inoculated with cultured yeasts; it ferments at a temperature of 13°C in order to preserve the classic varietal fragrances.
Maturation

A minimum of 3 months in steel tanks, with once-weekly bâttonage of the fine lees, followed by a minimum of 45 days’ bottle-ageing.
Sensory profile

Limpid and clear to the eye, with a distinctive coppery tonality. Fragrant peach predominates on the nose, complemented by impressions of tropical fruit, such as pineapple and heightened by subtle floral notes of spring wildflowers. Elegant and silk-smooth in the mouth, yet firmly-structured and full-bodied. Beautifully crisp, it progresses regally into a lingering finish.
Serving suggestions

An ideal partner with light and vegetarian entrees, and perfect with fish.
Serving temperature

10-12 °C
