Organic Pinot Grigio, ERA Volpi, Molise, Italy 2020

Organic – sustainable farming – hand harvested – value for money

Cantine Volpi

From the winemaking team at Cantine Volpi comes this delicious range of organic cuvées called ‘ERA’, which we believe are a fantastic addition to our Italian portfolio. From their 5 distinct regional bases (Veneto, Marche, Abruzzo, Apulia and Sicily), the Volpi team cultivate a wide range of grape varietals that are fashioned into fresh, food-friendly wines.

In particular, their Pinot Grigio is proof that, despite massive overproduction in recent years, there are still some top quality of this variety to found. All vineyard work is completed by hand, including pruning and picking – techniques that are both increasingly conducted with machinery in the Veneto region – while the addition of sulphites is extremely minimal, in order to display purity of fruit in each of the wines.

Displaying apple, gentle citrus notes and a long smooth finish, it is a great easy drinking wine which is extremely clean on the palate – ideal for summer drinking.
