Forbes - Italian Pinot Grigio Is A Lot Better Thank You Think
In Forbes’ article “Italian Pinot Grigio Is A Lot Better Than You Think”, wine writer Nick Passmore argues that Italian Pinot Grigio deserves a much stronger reputation. He points especially to Alto Adige, where the wines show freshness, elegance and complexity, proving how exciting modern Alpine Pinot Grigio can be compared to bland mass-market versions.
Among his 15 summer picks he includes our Pinot Grigio Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT 2016.
His tasting note:
«An unmistakable, and unpronounceable, German name for an Italian wine bred in the Dolomite Mountains of north-east Italy tells you much of recent history. However, disregard the Austrian/Italian of many centuries and pay attention to the hugely appealing tropical fruit on the front palate followed by a rocky, herbal-tinged finish that tells you so much of the excellence of modern Italian, Alpine Pinot Grigio.»
