Natalie's Score: 90/100

Fresh and alive like spring white linens blowing in the breeze. This Italian Pinot Grigio is the essence of lime and lemon zest. Mouth-watering and medium-bodied. Peter Zemmer is one of the most respected producers of Pinot Grigio whose benchmark home is in the northern region of the country in cool-climate vineyards. This winery is tough on their yields and sorting, which results in remarkably flavourful wines. The wine also experiences a slow, temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel vats to preserve freshness. Pair with shellfish or seafood.

Pinot Grigio food pairings: seafood chowder, cheese, poultry, pizza, pork.

Reviews and Ratings

Heather Wall - CS; WSET Advanced rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This is a very good Pinot Grigio. Brilliant lemon green in the glass with medium+ aromas of lemon-lime, grapefruit,tree fruit, melon, spring blossoms, sea salt, stony minerality. The palate is fresh and clean with zest, honey, hint of toffee, salt, straw. Medium+ acidity. Bone dry. A pleasant surprise. Serve well chilled. Enjoy over the next 3 yrs.

This Italian white wine is made from the country's iconic Pinot Grigio grape. Winemaker Peter Zemmer sources the grapes from the best vineyards on Alto Adige region's valley floor as well as its steep slopes. - Community Wine Reviews
