Veneto, Italy

The Gorgo Pinot Grigio 2023 is a refreshing and crisp white wine that exemplifies the elegance and purity of the Veneto region in Italy.

Winemaking:
Sourced from the vineyards of Veneto, the 2023 Gorgo Pinot Grigio is made from carefully selected grapes that undergo a gentle pressing process to extract the purest juice. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve its fresh, aromatic character, with minimal oak influence to allow the natural fruit flavours to shine through. After fermentation, the wine is left to rest on its lees for a brief period to enhance texture and mouthfeel, resulting in a balanced and clean finish.

Bouquet:
The nose is fresh and delicate, offering aromas of ripe pear, green apple, and citrus zest, along with hints of white flowers and a touch of minerality. There is a subtle herbal note that adds complexity, making the bouquet inviting and refreshing with a perfect balance of fruit and floral elements.

Palate:
On the palate, the 2023 Pinot Grigio is light to medium-bodied with a crisp, clean texture that is both refreshing and smooth. Flavours of green apple, lemon, and lime dominate, complemented by hints of melon and subtle spice. The wine's lively acidity gives it a vibrant, mouth-watering quality, leading to a clean, mineral-driven finish that lingers pleasantly.

Food Pairing:
This Pinot Grigio is an incredibly versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes. It’s an excellent match for seafood, such as shrimp, oysters, or light white fish, and also complements salads, grilled vegetables, or fresh pasta dishes with light sauces. For cheese pairings, enjoy it with fresh goat cheese, mozzarella, or mild creamy cheeses. It’s also an ideal companion for a light, refreshing appetizer like bruschetta or a citrusy ceviche.
