description
100% Pinot Grigio. This "fuoripista" or "off-the-track" Pinot Grigio is so named partly because of Elisabetta’s unconventional choice to let it macerate with skins for 8 months in clay amphorae. The fruit is sourced from an old pergola-trained vineyard of alluvial sand and gravel soils worked biodynamically by a neighbor.
"I love the Pinot Grigio: the wine sees a lot of skin contact, 8 months of skin contact in fact, giving it boundless complexity. There’s fresh peach and citrus combined with notes of orange zest, taro, and truffle. It’s equal parts floral and savory. My taste buds were literally trembling when I tried this wine for the first time." -JWK, Summer Catalogue 2022
