Ronco dei Tassi, Pinot Grigio, Collio, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy 2019

Located in north-eastern Italy on the Slovenian border, the Friuli winemaking region is renowned for being home to some of Italy’s most avant-garde winemakers, but Ronco dei Tassi stands out from the crowd with its firm commitment to tradition, producing complex, elegant wines that speak of terroir and history.

Only the best fruit is used for this single-variety bottling. This is an excellent, fruit-driven expression of Pinot Grigio. Fresh pear and ripe apple on the nose give way to rich flavors of kumquat, quince and fresh herbs in the mouth, supported by a nice acidity, making this an excellent wine to pair with a variety of foods.
