PINOT GRIGIO DE PURCARI 2021

Product information:

Undoubtedly, Pinot Grigio de Purcari is like the touch of autumn: smooth, warm and enigmatic. A wine that does not shout, but whispers a beautiful story. The grapes are hand-picked in September and cold alcohol-fermented in stainless tanks.

Wine tasting Pinot Grigio de Purcari:

The relatively pale colour with green highlights suggests this will be a Pinot Grigio in the Italian mode, but the nose and palate deliver a far more Alsatian experience, full-bodied, almost viscous, with exotic and candied fruit notes and an engagingly savoury note on the finish. t combines well with dishes of fish, shellfish, chicken, hard cheese, and grilled vegetables.

Recommended serving temperature: +10…+12°C.
