Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, high acidity, dry
Pinot Grigio grown in Alto Adige, where altitude and cool alpine nights give the variety a definition it rarely finds further south. Ripe pear and yellow apple over an almond note and a stony, faintly saline minerality from the region's porphyry and limestone soils, medium-bodied and dry with genuinely high acidity. Andriano is one of Italy's oldest cooperatives, and this is the crisp, precise house style rather than the soft commercial version of the grape.
