colterenzio classic pinot grigio 2021

"the alto adige is home to some of the most important cooperative wineries not only in italy, but around the world. these are very strong companies whose mission is entirely focused on absolute quality, and who can boast a production of undisputed excellence. among them, colterenzio occupies a leading position. it seems that already in the fifteenth century, the archduke sigismond particularly liked the wines produced by colterenzio, but historical documents show that the region was already suitable for viticulture in the first century bc. j.-c., when the roman settler cornelius decided to found in this area his domain ""cornelianum"". twenty centuries later, the territorial tradition did not disappear, and in 1960 it was renewed with the foundation of the cantina colterenzio, originally composed of just under thirty members. today, with about three hundred partners, the colterenzio winery is one of the most important in the region. we are in cornaiano, a small village near appiano, in the province of bolzano. a place where nothing is left to chance. mouth filling, mellow with finesse, discreet fruit aromas and impressive length. pale straw yellow in color with an attractive aroma of citrus fruits, peach and honeydew melon; medium rich, fruity and direct on the palate with orchard fruit flavors and tangy acidity on the finish."
