Pinot Grigio DOC Friuli Venezia Giulia “orange capsule”
Yellow-orange color, with fascinating amber highlights. To the nose, aromas of ripe fruit, citrus notes and hints of vanilla and innamon. On the palate, full-bodied, elegant and structured, marked by a nice freshness and a good savoury flavour. It goes well with sauced white meats and BBQ as well roasted duck or turkey. Excellent with medium mature cheeses. Serve at 12-15 °C.
