Tasting notes
The IGT 2012 Pinot Grigio delivers a fresh and exceptionally clean interpretation of one of the most popular white grapes today. Varietal aromas of stone fruit, melon, honey, citrus and natural rubber abound. An added bonus is the medium build and creaminess of the mouth-feel: Pair this easy-drinking Grigio with risotto con crema di scampi (risotto with shrimp reduction cream sauce). You’ll love the easy appeal and freshness of this weekday wine. Drink: 2014-2015. One of the great pioneers of Friuli wine, Silvio Jermann and his family continue to shake things up in the wider world of vino italiano. Their efforts represent a huge step in the collective consciousness towards screw-cap closures, a move that otherwise seemed light years away. Importer: Empson USA, www.empson.com
