I Ciari Pinot Grigio Venezia DOC - Borgo Molino

This single-varietal Italian wine presents wonderfully expressive notes of apples, pears, quinces and Nashi pears in the glass. There are also hints of sun-warmed rock and forest floor.

The I Ciari Pinot Grigio Venezia from Borgo Molino is a good choice for anyone who likes as little residual sugar as possible in their wine. However, it is never sparse or brittle, as you would naturally expect from a wine in the upper price range. The texture of this balanced white wine is wonderfully light on the palate. The finish of this mature white wine from the Veneto wine-growing region is convincing with a good aftertaste. The finish is also accompanied by mineral notes from the clay-dominated soils.

Vinification of the I Ciari Pinot Grigio Venezia from Borgo Molino

This balanced white wine from Italy is made from the Pinot Grigio grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Veneto. Here, the vines dig their roots deep into clay soils. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately taken to the press house. Here they are sorted and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
