Tre Venezie IGT, Italy
This Pinot Grigio's crisp acidity will have you reaching for glass after glass, guaranteed!
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Kris
Artist Cuvée Pinot Grigio
Trentino Alto-Adige is famously known for some of the most spectacular Pinot Grigio wines in the world. The region is nestled at the tiptop of Italy right at the Austrian border and receives a moderate climate, perfect for grape growing. This fruit was harvested in September and had a beautiful growing season with ample time under the Southwestern facing sun to fully ripen and develop an approachable and delicious profile. This wine is a classic Italian Pinot Grigio - bright acidity and ripe fruit flavors of citrus and stone fruit. Italian Pinot Grigio features much less fruit than its counterparts in America or France, though this particular wine has 10% Chardonnay blended in to add fruit-forward flavors to the palate. Aged in 100% Stainless Steel, the wine sat in tank for 6 months before being bottled, allowing flavors to fully meld together. The perfect wine for a hot summer day.

WINE REGION:
Tre Venezie IGT
The three wine regions covering Italy's far northeast—Trentino, Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Verona—are known collectively as Tre Venezie, or "the three Venices." Bathed in sunshine yet cooled by the Alps and the Adriatic Sea, this large area produces world-class whites, reds and sparkling wines. Tre Venezie wines are famed for their fresh and food-friendly character. Crisply aromatic Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay are the most exported wines from the region, but you will also find unique modern takes on obscure local red grapes and classic French varieties like Pinot Noir and Merlot. The IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) classification system was created to provide more freedom and ease for winemaking within Italy. Wines under the IGT classification are regulated on the region of origin – where within the country grapes are grown – instead of varietals or wine styles as DOC and DOCG laws focus on.
