White wine | Delle Venezie, Italy
The Ecco Domani Pinot Grigio is a quintessential expression of Italy's renowned Delle Venezie region, designed for those who appreciate a crisp, vibrant, and approachable white wine. Crafted by winemaker Fabrizio Gatto, this wine is produced by Mezzocorona, drawing on the cool, high-altitude climates of northeastern Italy to ensure maximum freshness. This signature bottling is a blend of 97% Pinot Grigio and 3% Chardonnay, a thoughtful combination that provides a delicate roundness and depth, elevating it beyond a typical single-varietal pour.
On the nose, you will be greeted by an inviting bouquet of delicate floral aromas, complemented by vibrant notes of pineapple, passion fruit, and mango. On the palate, the wine is lively and fruit-forward, featuring a refreshing burst of citrus—specifically lemon and lime—balanced by the crisp sweetness of green apple and melon. Its medium-bodied, elegant texture is achieved through a short period of sur lie aging, which adds a subtle richness without compromising the wine's characteristic zest. The finish is remarkably clean and crisp, often carrying a faint, pleasant hint of minerality and Williams pear.
This wine is an excellent choice for a wide variety of occasions. Its food-friendly profile makes it a stellar partner for fresh seafood, sushi, light pasta dishes with lemon-based sauces, or a simple spring garden salad. It also shines as a refreshing aperitif after a long workday. Because it is designed for immediate enjoyment and peak freshness, it is best served well-chilled, around 8°C. Whether you are hosting a casual dinner party or looking for a reliable, unpretentious bottle to brighten a summer afternoon, the Ecco Domani Pinot Grigio offers consistent quality and classic Italian style in every glass.
Light body with sharp acidity and a clean zesty finish that hits right.
