Maiden's Delight

The climate in the Garda region of Italy is classic Mediterranean. It is warm and sunny and idyllic for grape growing. Nestled in the Northern part of the country and on Lake Garda, Italy’s largest lake, the landscape in Garda is dotted with cypress, olive, cherry, and lemon trees. Chilly winds come off the lake, giving grapes some relief from the otherwise hot environment. Fruit has just enough time to ripen and develop flavors while retaining natural acidity. Pinot Grigios like this one thrive in the region. Classic citrus flavors and a lively acidity are complemented by slight earthy notes and minerality. Round on the palate and fruit-forward, this wine is beautifully balanced and uncomplicated. An amazing pair with lighter pasta dishes and creamy cheeses, this should be enjoyed outdoors with friends.
