Italo Cescon

Description

Italo Cescon Pinot Grigio Delle Venezie Il Tralcetto DOC 2022

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Pinot Grigio, from vines across Fagarè, Vallonto, Fontanelle in Veneto, Italy. The vines are planted on clayed soil of alluvial origin

Taste Profile: Straw yellow in color. Intense & elegant nose, with fruity peach & citrus aromas, and baking spice. On the palatte, dry and fresh sensation enhances elegant fruity flavors; a good match with crispy character and round one leaves palate with a perfect balance, assuring a very pleasant wine

Winemaking Process: After crushing and destemming, a gentle pressing gives 50% of run juice. 15 days alcoholic fermentation occurs under controlled temperature of 13° C. 5/6 months maturation is on its yeast and, after ranking and filtration, it follows 3 months bottle ageing

Bright & Mineral Whites

From the limestone character of Sancerre to the green, herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc of Marlborough, this style group often shows off cut grass and wet stone. Often associated with coastal regions or limestone based terroir, these wines are characterised with crisp acidity, mineraiity, citrus tones, with a hint of grassiness
