Guglielmo Winery Pinot Grigio |
2007 Private Reserve Pinot Grigio Santa Clara Valley
One of the most popular of our white wine releases, we are happy to again make available this lovely Pinot Grigio. Pinot Grigio is thought to be a gray-skinned mutation of the dark-skinned Pinot Noir. It is a popular grape variety commonly found in our family’s ancestral home of Northern Italy—especially in Alto-Adige, Veneto and Friuli. The grape is also grown in France where it is commonly known as Pinot Gris.
WINEMAKERS NOTES:
The 2007 vintage was produced from Pinot Grigio grapes grown in the Clarksburg region of the Sacramento River Delta. This wine opens on the nose with opulent citrus/stone fruit aromas reminiscent of grapefruit and peach—with hints of lichee nut, green apple and vanilla. On the palate the wine has a distinctive mineral essence with background notes of toasted almond all wrapped in a clean, austere finish. This nicely balanced wine is a perfect complement for seafood or pasta with white sauces. The 2007 vintage yielded approximately 1,250 cases.
