Civranetta DOC Venezia Pinot Grigio 2023

Tasting note

Color:

Clear lemon yellow with light reflections

Nose:

What intense fruit flavours pour out of the glass! Passion fruit, grapefruit and gooseberry stand out intensely from the potpourri. Cantaloupe melon, pear and white peach form the second tier. Numerous light-coloured and yellow flowers provide soothing, soft elements and push it further up the elegance scale. Subtle, yeasty nuances surround the nose at the back and thus also set accents in the form of almond and butterscotch, albeit very subtly.

Palate:

It follows on seamlessly from the nose on the palate. The fruit is intense with a tropical flavour. It is soft and delicate. The floral and yeasty flavours provide plenty of elegance as well as melting. Jasmine and almond blossom leave their sensational mark. With very mild acidity, it is soft and soothing on the palate. A very delicate bitterness flatters the palate in an enormously positive way at the end.
