Wine list | Pinot Grigio |
“Jesera” Pinot Grigio is an expression of Collio DOC where richness and freshness go along. This wine never betrays. The fermentation is managed in steel, where the grapes rest on their yeasts for 5 months. A classic that comes from a region that is famous for the production of white wines. 100% Pinot Grigio. The wine making process considers that the maceration of the pressed grapes lasts for 6-8 hours at a controlled temperature of 14°C. It is managed in specific containers protected by oxygen through the recycling of its fermentation CO2, to reduce the quantity of antioxidants. The 10% of the must then ferments and ages on its yeasts for 5 months in big barrels (20 HL), the other 90% in steel.

A perfect solution for happy hours, great with finger food. Excellent with raw fish, cold cuts, especially “Prosciutto Crudo San Daniele”. Suggested with little pies made with chicken and curry. It has to be served at 18°C in a high, tapered wine glass that helps the concentration of the perfumes.
