Tasting notes
Deep, almost pinkish, onionskin color typical of Pinot Grigio from Friuli. The nose reveals a powerful floreal note, with a touch of tropical fruits in the end. Shades of clay and gypsum typical of the terroir are also present. It tastes full bodied and fresh with a great structure given by the maceration that matches very well with the acidity and salinity in the aftertaste. 100% Pinot Grigio
Estate
Le Vigne di Zamò (the Vines of Zamò) and its picturesque Abbazia di Rosazzo (Rosazzo Abbey) are considered by many to be the pinnacle of Friulian winemaking. The estate dates back to 1924 and the family has been hand crafting wine in Italy’s’ Northeastern region of Friuli ever since, they are true icons of Italian viticulture. The winery is also now a substantial operation with a gleaming new winery. The dedicated team crafts an array of world class wines from indigenous grapes as well as international varietals.
Vinification
The grapes are picked at full ripeness and then destemmed on arrival in the cellar. Half of the fruit is cold-macerated before fermentation at controlled temperatures in stainless steel. The other half was left on the skins for four days
