"Pinot Grigio from Pinot Grigio grapes, part-fermented as a white wine. It has an intense straw-yellow colour with a light nuance of antique rose. Its aroma is intense, full and fruity, with excellent persistence. Its taste is dry, velvety, and particularly well-orchestrated for its full body. It is paired with fish soups, chargrilled seafood and various dishes based on field mushrooms and porcini mushrooms. This wine is wonderful with squid ink lasagnette pasta and crayfish sauce."

"Ripe, sweet fruit flavors of damson plum and black cherry mix with lively acidity and accents of date, spice box, mineral and fresh earth, while layered tannins add muscle to this elegant red."

"Gini's 2009 Soave Classico is especially round in this vintage. An expressive, floral bouquet leads to peaches, apricots and spices in this soft, engaging Soave."
