2023 Riporta Small Batch Pinot Grigio IGT, Sicily

Riporta celebrates the vibrant flavours of southern Italy, partnering with experienced growers to produce small batch wines that express regional character with exceptional value. Crafted with a modern approach while respecting traditional varieties, the range highlights the freshness and generosity that have made Italian wines favourites around the world.

This Pinot Grigio is grown under Sicily's warm Mediterranean sunshine, where cooling coastal breezes help preserve freshness and aromatic lift. The island's varied soils and abundant sunshine produce a riper, more expressive style than many northern Italian examples, balancing generous fruit with bright natural acidity.

The colour is a brilliant pale straw with shimmering green highlights. Aromas of pear, white peach and lemon zest are complemented by blossom, fresh herbs and a touch of Mediterranean citrus. The palate is lively and beautifully balanced, carrying crisp orchard fruits through refreshing acidity with a gentle mineral edge. A clean, dry finish leaves lingering notes of citrus and ripe pear.

Perfect with grilled calamari, prawn linguine, swordfish with lemon, zucchini fritters, burrata with basil or enjoyed as a refreshing aperitif. Drink while young to appreciate its vibrant fruit and Mediterranean freshness.
