2023 Bolla La Real Casa Pinot Grigio Delle Venezie

Bolla is one of the oldest Amarone houses and more than 130 years later the Bolla winery has grown into a worldwide famous winery with a wide range of wines. What has remained is the unique taste of the Bolla wines arising from the special climate and terroir of the Veneto area. Oenologist Christian Zulian has been winemaker at Bolla since 2015. Before joining Bolla, he worked for thirteen years at Marchesi Antinori and several years at Domaine Baron de Rothschild.

After harvest, the stems are removed from the Pinot Grigio (Pinot Gris), the grapes are crushed and delicately pressed. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks where the temperature does not exceed 16 degrees. The Retro Pinot Grigio has had a Sur Lie upbringing so has matured on its lees/yeasts.

The Bolla Pinot Grigio La Real Casa is pale yellow in color. The scent is warm and complex and has scents of pear, melon and a fresh touch of lime. The taste has an impressive structure and offers a beautiful balance of fruit and freshness. It is wonderfully fresh with fruit tones of melon and citrus fruit. The beautiful long aftertaste completes the picture. Pinot Grigio Real Casa is delicious as an aperitif, but also goes well with fish and meat dishes.
