Vinification of the Komjanc Simon Pinot Grigio Collio

This wine clearly focuses on a single grape variety, namely Pinot Grigio. For this wonderfully balanced varietal wine from Komjanc Simon, only immaculate grape material was used. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. Here, the vines sink their roots deep into soils of clay and sandstone. After hand-picking, the grapes are immediately brought to the press house. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months on the fine lees before it is finally bottled.
