the gifts of nature.

“What is so fascinating about Pinot Grigio is its diversity of character. More than any other grape, it is an expression of the history of its origins and the individual vintage. That is what I find so impressive: The wine tells us where it is from and when it was created.”

Il Pinot Grigio – a mutation of Pinot Noir – started its career in the Bordeaux region of France and has become one of today’s international grape varieties. It was introduced to South Tyrol in the 19th century and is now the commonest grape variety there. It is used to make white wines that are full-flavored on the palate and warm and floral on the nose.
