"This Pinot Grigio stands out; there is a verve that is immediately present. Golden-hued with ripe, juicy pear and preserved lemon leading the charge. The palate shows impressive weight but stays light on its feet thanks to precise acidity. Finishes with a delicate dance of orange blossom and sea salt. Grilled zucchini, feta and basil salad would shine with this wine." - 94 points, Jeff Porter for The Wine Enthusiast
On the stick:
"When our grandmother Anna picked up a gnarled stick among the pruning branches and brought it home, she couldn’t have known that her son Italo would transform it into something much bigger, a mark of recognition identifying that which would become the winery’s longest-running line and a symbol of the bond between our company and the land." - Italo Cescon, Winemaker
