Sassara "Pinot Griso" Vin de UA 2021

Pinot Grigio (Orange or could it be a rose)

Biodynamic, 12 days skin contact, stainless aged

VENETO, Lago Garda, ITA

Pinot Grigio just takes a new form when it has a hug of skin contact. Some of us, the best of us, just need a little skin contact in order to be happy. Red apple, apple seed, aranciata and little amaro like herbs. It’s a versatile orange wine that we imagine is perfect for a bit of Indian food. This is the passionate work of Alessia Bertaiola and her husband, Stefano, a 3rd generation winemaker whose family has had this property for more than 50 years. They took over the property in 2007, and with Alessia's strong background in agricultural research and development, quickly converted each plot to biodynamic farming. They have been making certified organic wine during that time, but due to a lack of inspiration, they took the plunge into producing a more naturalistic expression of their incredible fruit and soil.
