Wine Description:
Pinot Grigio is one of the most popular Italian white wines, but it wasn't always produced in the "colorless" style we know today. It's important to note that Pinot Grigio grapes do not have white skins; instead, they exhibit a pinkish-grey hue. Until the 1960s, it was common practice to leave the must in contact with the skins for a longer period. This process enhanced the wine's aromatic richness, complexity, and tannins, while also imparting a distinctive copper tone (known as "ramato" in Italian) from the natural pigments in the grape skins.

The White Knight Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshing, pure, unoaked and varietally-expressive dry white hailing from Lodi. After harvesting and pressing the grapes, the wine is fermented in inert vessels to retain fruit purity and the delicate aromatics. The wine is aged for a short period in inert vessels prior to release as the winemaker is seeking to retain vibrancy of fruit without imparting oak spice or masking the pure varietal character.
