Dazzling with enticing fruit and fresh herb aromas, a scintillating mouthful of rich peach and grapefruit is evident on the palate. Lemon, lime and a mineral crispness also persist with a gentle spicy finish.

The Farnese team add to their already impressive range with an authentic, intensely refreshing Pinot Grigio. Full of crisp, invigorating citrusy flavours, it's sure to be the next Farnese showstopper!

The grapes come from one solitary vineyard in the mountainous Molise.  It's a thrilling landscape of high, empty spaces and little lost towns. Pinot Grigio is rarely grown here but winemakers Valentino, Flippo and Camillo thought the potential was huge. So they found their spot, grew the vines… and proved their point!

Tasting notes for Farnese Pinot Grigio 2011



Pale to medium lemon-gold in colour.

On nose, tropical fruit, citrus (towards mandarin?), touch of musk. Fresh and fruity.

Full and fruity, melon, even mango, with lemon/grapefruit. Quite tangy, lots of fruit and a nice touch of spice on finish.

Terrific all-rounder, crisp, dry, fruity, good with food or without.

Mike, 2008 vintage (Mar 2010)
