Fioroso Pinot Grigio
 
Type: White Wine
Grape(s): Pinot Grigio
Wine Region: Venezia, Italy
Winemaking: Organic, not vegan
 
Tasting Notes: Light golden colour with lifted aromas of stone-fruits and melons. Medium bodied containing flavours of ripe peaches and tropical fruit. This wine is dry, velvety, tasty and fruity with a slight after-taste of bitter almond; it is well-bodied and harmonic, and has good acidity and alcoholic degree; it is very persistent on the palate and best drunk when young.
 
The Estate: The winery is based in Venezia and in Sicily and they are owned by Tombacco Group. It’s a three-generation family owned business.  They are famous for Pinot Grigio and Nero d’Avola. Wines with genuine and intense flavours, in the best wine-making tradition of our country. They work to create different types of products, to satisfy an Italian and foreign market that is both demanding and capable of choosing quality wines at competitive prices. 40% of the production gives rise to around 10 million bottles a year, while the remaining 60% is sold in barrels.
Their mission is to give light to the culture and tradition of good Italian wines. For this reason, the logo, symbol of Tombacco's deepest identity, bears the date 1919, because today as then, tradition, the values of know-how, the love for simple things allow the team to produce quality Italian wines. For 100 years our history has lived in what they do, and have decided to tell other stories that speak of yesterday but transmit values, sensations and fascinating images, like splendid postcards to admire and read to build a richer and more aware tomorrow.
 
Suggested food and wine pairing: This wine is excellent as an aperitif and ideal with seafood salads and main courses based on fish and crustaceans. It is perfect with white meats, and boiled, grilled or fried fish. Chicken with lemons and herbs, roast butternut squash risotto.
