WINE DESCRIPTION
Crafted by the renowned family of Opera singer Andrea Bocelli, who actively participates in the production, this Pinot Grigio hails from the hills of Colli Euganei in northern Italy's Veneto region. Representing a refined expression of Pinot Grigio, the low yields of one bottle per vine result in intense aromas of Meyer lemon, white flowers, and subtle wild herbs. Distinguished by a fuller body and richer texture compared to most Pinot Grigios, it excels in food pairings, showcasing the family's commitment to creating a serious and noteworthy wine in the picturesque terroir of Colli Euganei.
