About this wine

⤍ Elegant, refreshing, with a clean and lingering mineral finish.
Gastronomy:

∙ Avoid overly spicy or heavily sweetened dishes.
Vineyards:
Steep hillside vineyards around extinct volcanoes, rich in basalt and minerals.
Ageing method:
Aged briefly on fine lees (Sur Lie) to enhance roundness, then rested in bottle before release.
Winemaking process:
Pinot Grigio is given a short skin maceration of 12–24 hours, which draws out the copper colour and extra flavour, followed by a cool, temperature-controlled fermentation. 'Ramato' means 'coppery' in Italian: Pinot Grigio has pinkish-grey skins, and this old Venetian method lets them tint the wine as they once did.
Interesting notes:
Although Pinot Grigio is widely known as a white wine, its skin is actually pinkish-grey. The "Ramato" (meaning "copper" in Italian) technique is an ancient Venetian method that allows skin contact to restore the grape's beautiful authentic color.
