An Italian-style, dry (sugar-free) and refreshing Pinot Grigio Blush – with a twist! This wine had ‘sur lie’ – ie sitting on the fine creamy sediments whilst I kept it cloudy by stirring it every 6 days to build the minerality and mouthfeel. The result is a dry, Italian-style Pinot Gris (ie Pinot Grigio) with classical Pinot fruit flavours including apple, citrus and spice but with added complexity (a yeasty minerality) and a long, lingering, smooth texture.
Match with crunchy calamari, grilled snapper or eggplant parmigiano.
