Fornas Pinot Grigio DOC Friuli Italy

Fornas is produced in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, the north-eastern corner of Italy that sits at the crossroads of Italian, Slovenian, and Austrian influences. This is one of Italy's great white wine regions, and Pinot Grigio grown here — particularly in the Grave and Collio zones — has a freshness and mineral character that the mass-market versions simply can't match.Pale straw with a clean, expressive nose of green apple, pear, white peach, and a subtle mineral note. Dry and refreshing on the palate with bright acidity and a crisp, clean finish. A step up from the everyday — this is Pinot Grigio as it should be. Superb with seafood, grilled fish, light pasta dishes, or as a confident aperitif.
