Kris 2018 Artist Cuve Pinot Grigio Tre Venezie IGT, Italy

Description

Trentino Alto-Adige is famously known for some of the most spectacular Pinot Grigio wines in the world. The region is nestled at the tiptop of Italy right at the Austrian border and receives a moderate climate, perfect for grape growing. This fruit was harvested in September and had a beautiful growing season with ample time under the Southwestern facing sun to fully ripen and develop an approachable and delicious profile. This wine is a classic Italian Pinot Grigio – bright acidity and ripe fruit flavors of citrus and stone fruit. Italian Pinot Grigio features much less fruit than its counterparts in America or France, though this particular wine has 10% Chardonnay blended in to add fruit-forward flavors to the palate. Aged in 100% Stainless Steel, the wine sat in tank for 6 months before being bottled, allowing flavors to fully meld together. The perfect wine for a hot summer day.
