Casa Catelli Organic Orange Wine - Italy

Warm yellow color with hints of orange. On the nose citrus fruits aroma and light minerality. On the palate is complex with dried fruit notes and acacia flavours. Intense and elegant at the same time.

Pinot Grigio is a modification of the Pinot Noir. It's believed that it was brought to Italy by an Italian general that purchased some vines in Burgundy, where at that time it was blended with the Burgundy varietals. The varietal was then adapted to a new territory and offers the best result if planted on cool hills, on alluvial dry slopes.

Pinot Grigio berries resemble the Pinot Noir, which are purple blue, while the Pinot Grigio berries are grey blue and brown pink. It's a generous varietal, needs to be green harvested with regularity to keep production low and obtain the best results.

It has become a very popular white varietal due to its freshness and easiness to drink outside the meals, and it pairs well with different kinds of food
