Description
ABOUT THE PRODUCER:
Andrea di Pec was the nephew of Federico d’Attems, who served as Chancellor of Gorizia in 1540. Andrea was renowned as a great teacher of viticulture, passing on his knowledge to many winegrowers in the area. His estate was situated on some of the most prestigious agricultural land in Friuli, and his impact on the region was such that, despite the property being splintered and changing hands over the centuries, the name remained. It is still used today by the present owners, the Collavini family, who have been involved with wine since 1896.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD:
The vines are trained on double arched canes, providing the canopy with the optimum amount of sunlight and shade for the grapes to mature. The vineyard soils are made up of a combination of a red, clay soil which has a high iron content and gravel which provides the vine with good drainage.
THE WINEMAKING PROCESS:
A short maceration took place on the skins prior to fermentation in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures to preserve the fresh aromas and mineral characters in the wine. After fermentation, the wine rested in tank and bottle for several months, prior to release.
OUR TASTING NOTES:
A creamy Pinot Grigio, bursting with delicate aromas of citrus fruit complemented by hints of hay, fresh nuts and toasted almonds. Dry and beautifully balanced with a hint of nuttiness and spice through to a refreshing finish.
GRAPE VARIETY:
Pinot Grigio 100%.
