2006  Maso Canali Pinot Grigio

Italy - Trentino

Forget what you think you know about Italian Pinot Grigio. This is something special—bright, lively, luxurious. Winemaker Fabrizio Gatto used premium Pinot Grigio grapes from the Canali Family’s 500-year-old estate in Trentino, where the high elevation vineyards produce wines of exquisite character.

Fabrizio employed the time-intensive “passito” method for this wine, letting a small batch of the late-harvest Pinot Grigio grapes dry on racks, then vinifying them separately and folding them into the final blend. The result is an amazing intensity of tropical flavors and a big, full body. No secondary fermentation was allowed, giving the wine its crisp finish.

Ripe flavors of apricot, lemon, apple and pineapple, with ethereal floral notes woven throughout.

Check out the winemaker's notes for this wine.
