Abbazia di Novacella Pinot Grigio 2017
Trentino- Alto-Adige, ItalyThe abbey of Novacella has been around since the 12th century at the Northern end of Alto Adige’s Isarco Valley. If only walls could talk. Viticulture itself is 850 years old in the region. The Abbey owns many vineyards and works with many others based on ancient relationships. It is classic pinot grigio from very cool high altitude sites. The aromas and flavours reflect a tighter mineral style with mouthwatering lemony acidity, minerality and freshness from front to back. Stony, resiny, bright and lively, it is the match made in heaven for fresh shellfish.Tasted: 26 May 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $29.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
