Livio Felluga Pinot Grigio 2006
Pinot Gris/Grigio
from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy
winemaker's notes:
Appearance: Straw yellow with golden hues
Nose: Elegant, ample and complex with notes of wild rose and acacia flowers; hints
of tropical fruit, peach, apricot, licorice, anise and white pepper
Palate: Elegant, full, with good acidic balance; excellent retro-nasal aromatics;
persistent aftertaste with spicy notes of peach, apricot and bergamot
Serving suggestions: A particolarly good match for fish, seafood starters, risottos and baked vegetables.
"This fresh Pinot Grigio gains its complexity from a range of fruit flavors - high notes of lemon-lime and light pear to deeper nectarine. The fruit impressions shift like sunlight through passing clouds. Decant it for roast Cornish game hens stuffed with Meyer lemons."
