Made from Pinot Grigio grapes, it combines meticulous craftsmanship with a dry and elegant profile. Its lively freshness and \u003cstrong\u003edistinct mineral character\u003c\/strong\u003e create a soft, full sip, well balanced by an even structure. The vibrant acidity encourages drinking, leading to a clean and persistent finish. The characteristic \u003cstrong\u003esavoury aftertaste\u003c\/strong\u003e naturally enhances fish dishes and selections of fresh cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates in North-Eastern Italy, in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, an area historically renowned for producing great white wines. The vineyards stretch between the towns of \u003cstrong\u003eManzano and Rosazzo\u003c\/strong\u003e, in the province of Udine, where Le Vigne di Zamò cultivates its grapes following the principles of \u003cstrong\u003eorganic farming\u003c\/strong\u003e. The deep connection with the native hills translates into an \u003cstrong\u003eelegant and linear profile\u003c\/strong\u003e, consistent with the regional style, able to convey the authenticity of the land through a well-defined savoury tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Pinot Grigio grapes, harvested at full ripeness, are destemmed to begin two different vinification processes. One part undergoes \u003cstrong\u003ecold maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e and ferments at a controlled temperature in steel tanks. The remaining portion macerates on the skins for four days, then completes fermentation in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. The two fractions mature separately for about six months, with weekly bâtonnage; malolactic fermentation occurs exclusively in the portion aged in wood. The process concludes by blending the batches into a \u003cstrong\u003efinal harmonious and dry blend\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1978 between Manzano and Rosazzo, the winery \u003cstrong\u003eLe Vigne di Zamò\u003c\/strong\u003e produces this refined \u003cstrong\u003eFriuli Pinot Grigio DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e following the principles of organic farming. Under the guidance of oenologist Nicola Piccoli, the winemaking process is distinguished by its meticulous care: half of the grapes ferment in steel to preserve their lively freshness, while the remaining part macerates on the skins and matures in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. Thanks to regular weekly bâtonnage, the two batches refine separately for six months before the final blending, resulting in an elegant and persistent sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Le Vigne di Zamo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47653794152619,"sku":"62369","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/en-uk\/products\/le-vigne-di-zamo-pinot-grigio-2025","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
