Casa Giona Pinot Grigio Delle Venezie 2023/24

Description
Looking for a tasty, smooth and easy-drinking Pinot Grigio? Then try this new one from Casa Giona. The winery is located just north of Verona, in the Valpolicella area. This area is famous for its red wines Valpolicella, Ripasso and Amarone, but Casa Giona also makes surprisingly tasty whites from vineyards located on Lake Garda.

The grapes for Pinot Grigio are harvested at the end of August. In the cellar, a modern vinification follows, which produces a pure, fruity style. After destemming and a soft pressing, the juice ferments in stainless steel tanks, where the wine rests for a few months before bottling.

It gives a refreshing and juicy white wine, with hints of white flowers, apple, pear and anise. It is perfect to serve as an aperitif or cocktail wine, but also combines well with many light dishes, from stuffed pumpkin to cod with tomatoes from the oven.

Drinking at
Fruity, supple white wine to drink as an aperitif, with drinks or with light (fish) dishes. Delicious with a salad of broad beans, quiche, fish kebab or a casserole with cod.

Tasting note
Accessible, dry white wine with a scent of white flowers, apple, pear and anise. Nicely juicy and smooth in taste with ripe fruit and mild acids in the elegant aftertaste.

Shelf life
Beautiful now and can be kept for up to 3 years after harvest.
