Italy Pinot Grigio Wine Kit - VineCo Original Series™
Explore the Versatile Charm of Pinot Grigio
Pinot Grigio is a unique and multifaceted grape variety that offers a delightful range of flavors and aromas, influenced by the winemaking traditions of its growing regions. From fresh and neutral to complex and opulent, Pinot Grigio can surprise with its diverse profiles. The grapes themselves can vary significantly in color, ranging from grayish-blue to pale yellow, which adds to the intrigue of this versatile wine.
Originally a clone of Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio's distinct appearance results from a genetic mutation that occurred centuries ago. While it is often associated with Italy, this grape actually hails from Burgundy, France, where it has been cultivated since the Middle Ages. Over time, it spread to Switzerland and eventually made its way to northeastern Italy, where it became known as Pinot Grigio. In Italy, this wine is celebrated for its lighter body, crisp acidity, and predominantly fruity or floral flavors.
Our VineCo Italy Pinot Grigio showcases vibrant orchard flavors of green apple, lemon, and lime. This dry white wine features a light-medium body, no oak influence, and an alcohol level of 12.5% by volume.
Ideal for warm summer evenings, this bright wine pairs perfectly with light fare, enhancing outdoor meals enjoyed under the sun. Its lively fruit character encourages spirited conversation, making it a fantastic choice for gatherings. Pair it with seafood dishes like crab cakes, calamari, or a refreshing bowl of spicy ceviche for an unforgettable dining experience.
