Carrefour st Maxime. - EUR 15 — 6 years ago
A bit modest at first, but with a pronounced minerality that is confidently taking over the show, and evolving into a salty complexity. Great presence and a vibrant texture on the palate is driving the fruit through the finish. A very smart wine. — 6 years ago

Delicious. Bought at Liner & Elsin. — 5 years ago
A few weeks ago I popped one of these and the reduction was a problem, this time I decanted and it is singing! So lively and intense, it's an attention grabber and beautifully generous with its orchard fruit, verbena and kiss of vanilla on the finish. All harmony and sunshine here. This is incredibly fun to drink and certainly will improve over the next few years. Need to try more from this producer! — 5 years ago

Could be better than the 16, too early to tell. Off the truck drinking again. Trying to find it is the difficult part.
Winery notes,
This wine, full of character, comes from selected individual vineyards in the location Giatl, stocked with vines grafted to slow growing rootstock and trained on wire trellises (Guyot). This extraordinary Pinot Grigio flourishes under outstanding climatic conditions on a stony, sandy and extremely chalky soil in the valley floor around the center of Cortina s.s.d.v. The favourable location of the vineyards, ideal sunshine, and the good ventilation of the berries assures the excellent quality of the grapes of this varietal, that is also a representative of the Burgundy family.
Yield per hectare: 45 hl.
Vinification: The grapes are pressed and the stems are removed in the pneumatic tank press. Before being pressed, a short cold maceration takes place in order to enhance the fruitiness of the wine. Afterwards, the grapes are gently pressed and clarified through the natural settling of sediments. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in small casks of French oak in which this particular wine acquires complexity through its twelvemonth aging and ripening on the yeast. After bottling, several further months of aging takes place for completion before this unique white wine, furnished with its ultramodern bottle, goes on sale.
