On the finish, this wine from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia wine-growing region finally captivates with a lovely length. Once again, nuances of jasmine and acacia appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the sandstone- and clay-dominated soils join in. Vinification of the Pinot Grigio Collio by Draga The balanced Pinot Grigio Collio from Italy is a varietal wine made from the Pinot Grigio grape. In Friuli-Venezia Giulia, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay and sandstone soils. After hand-picking, the grapes are brought to the press house as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months on the fine lees before finally being bottled.
