Pinot Grigio doc Schiopetto 2021

The Pinot Gris by Schiopetto is made with grapes coming from different vineyards grown onto limescale stones. The vineyards are farmed following the integrated control of chemical products, to reduce the environmental impact. After the soft grapes pressing and the fermentaion, the wine rests for 8 months in steel tanks and in bottle for further 5 months. In the glass, it is bright pale yellow. The bouquet is intense, with notes of apple, pear and delicate scents of aromatic herbs. The sip is structured, sapid and pleasantly fresh. Pinot Gris by Schiopetto is recommended with fish courses or grilled fish.

The history of the Schiopetto winery has its origins in Capriva, where Mario Schioppetto rented the vineyards of the Curia around the Archiepiscopal Palace in 1970. Mario was able to transform old and uncultivated lands into vineyards treated in detail, until finally  the vineyards of the Curia became his property in 1989. He managed to transmit his love and passion for tradition to his children who helped him to run the company over the years. The Schiopetto winery, which is owned by the Rotolo family since 2014, continues to be the voice of the philosophy of Mario Schioppetto and gives us excellent wines.
