Grigio in Grigio Venezia Giulia IGT 2021 Bressan
Grigio in Grigio is the manifesto through which Fulvio Bressan aimed to rehabilitate Pinot Grigio, a grape varietal that, over recent decades, has been reduced to a soulless industrial white wine by large Friulian wineries. In Farra d'Isonzo, on the iron-rich gravels of the ancient Isonzo riverbed, Pinot Grigio reclaims the coppery color that is in its DNA and transforms into something entirely different: the grapes are harvested slightly overripe in mid-October, ferment spontaneously on their skins, and undergo long skin maceration before spending years in old, untoasted cherry and wild pear barrels, indigenous woods from the Friuli region. Produced only in the best vintages, in limited quantities. The result is an unrecognizable Pinot Grigio: fleshy, profound, with the light tannins of great orange wines and a mineral depth that demands to be deciphered. Pinot Grigio as it was meant to be.
