Pinot Grigio delle Venezie DOC - White Wine from Lake Garda
Last ten days of August, Tenuta Monte Corno . The Pinot Grigio grapes are perfectly ripe. Not too soon, not too late. It's the perfect time for the harvest, the one that makes the difference between an ordinary white and a truly outstanding Pinot Grigio delle Venezie DOC .
And this works. We at FeelGarda know this well because it's one of the Lake Garda white wines we drink most often in the office. Not because we're sommeliers, but simply because it's good and always goes well.
What makes it so drinkable?
Vinification in stainless steel at a controlled temperature preserves the freshness and aromatic richness typical of Pinot Grigio DOC . No wood, no frills, no attempts to make it seem like something it isn't. Just the purity of the grape variety.
Aging in steel develops the smoothness that makes it enjoyable from the first sip. You don't have to wait for it to open, you don't have to decant it, you don't have to do anything special. You uncork it, pour it, drink it. It works.
In the chalice (honest version)
Bright straw yellow color – simple, clean, refined.
On the nose: intense and fruity notes, with a pleasant minerality and a delicate floral note.
On the palate: soft, elegant and velvety , perfectly balanced by an aromatic freshness that makes it smooth.
At 12% ABV, it's a light white wine from the Venetian region . You can drink two glasses without feeling heavy. And that, let's face it, is a significant advantage.
The format we like
0.50 L bottle – perfect for aperitifs or light dinners without having to open a whole bottle. How many times have you wanted a glass of white wine but didn't want to open a 75 cl bottle? Well, this solves that problem.
At the office, we often open it on Friday evenings. It's the kind of Pinot Grigio from Lake Garda that everyone can agree on: those who love crisp whites, those looking for something light, and those who simply want a glass without thinking too much.
How we serve it (practical version)
Temperature: 10-12°C – cool but not icy, otherwise you lose the aromatic nuances.
Pairings that work:
-
Appetizers – cold cuts, grilled vegetables, bruschetta
-
Fish dishes – raw, grilled, baked
-
Rich salads – with shrimp, chicken, feta
-
Aperitif – even on its own, with some olives and chips
-
Sushi – yes, it works great
