Light copper hue here. Oyster shells, marzipan, dried peaches, grapefruit skin, iron, cherry stones and cranberries. A very serious and vinous pinot grigio with a full body and fine tannins. Solid structure and a broad, bone-dry finish. Drink now, but can hold well, too.

The 2021 Pinot Grigio Ramato Cru Selection displays a golden color with orange hues, wafting up with sweet scents of spice, wildflowers and nectarine. This is juicy and racy in character, with depths of ripe apple and pear elevated by hints of candied citrus and a stern core of minerality that adds lovely balance. It finishes long and staining, leaving a youthful concentration and a tart tinge of lime that puckers the cheeks.
Product Description:
An authentic copper-toned, pale pink wine that reflects the natural color of this grape. The bouquet is inviting, with aromas of red apple, wild raspberry, and a hint of cardamom spice. This is nicely rounded in the mouth but has vibrant, juicy red apple notes supported by a fine finish and a touch of mineral grip. This shows the finely judged balance and elegant complexity of four days of skin maceration yet without any heaviness.
Food matching ideas: Due to its elegant, complex body, this wine will pair well with various dishes - from cold starters to spring-summer pasta. It is excellent with seafood dishes and not too spicy Asian, Thai, and modern Japanese cuisine.
