Caposaldo Pinot Grigio

In northern italy’s veneto region near venice the pinot grigio vines are planted on hillside vineyards situated 750 feet above sea level where they benefit from well-drained mineral rich volcanic basaltic rock and chalky clay soils. Handpicking and cold fermentation promotes fresh acidity and the wine is not oak aged allowing the grapes’ varietal character to remain prominent. Tasting note features a dry crisp vibrant texture and delicate aromas of white fruit flowers and almonds. Food pairing pairs well with white meats fish seafood pasta dishes and delicate cheeses. Point of distinction – a fresh oak-free varietally correct pinot grigio – 100% handpicked grapes – a classic italian wine at an accessible price. – caposaldo
