Pinot Grigio Ramato DOC
Pure Pinot Grigio grapes grown in the hills of Ronca, east of Soave, in the Veneto. The grapes are carefully picked by hand and are then macerated for a minimum of twelve hours to achieve the gorgeous coppery hue before fermentation. Aging takes place in stainless steel for three months and a couple of months in bottle.
