Vigna Del Lauro Pinot Grigio Collio DOC

This is a substantial, medium-bodied Pinot Grigio that entices with freshness and an underlying minerality. Creamy and fruity at the same time with delicious cooked apples and pears intermingled with hints of crushed stones and lemon rind. A lovely finish.

James Suckling (91)- "A nose with salt-and-pepper minerality and stone fruit character. Rich on the vibrant, medium-bodied palate, with tingling acidity that’s almost electric. Super savory in the finish."

International Wine Review (91)- "Showing a reticent nose of citrus and herbs, this Pinot Grigio is well-balanced with good freshness and a full mouth feel. There’s good flavor density with lemony citrus complemented by savory notes and finishing long and rich. Sourced from 25-year-old vines grown in the Cormòns area at 160m elevation, fermented and aged in stainless steel. pH 3.4, 13% alc. "
