2025 Villa Sandi Pinot Grigio, Veneto

Here's a fresh version for the 2025 release rather than simply updating the previous vintage.

Villa Sandi has become one of Italy's most admired family wineries, combining centuries of Venetian heritage with a passion for producing elegant, expressive wines. Based at their magnificent Palladian villa in the heart of the Veneto, the Moretti Polegato family has built an international reputation for quality, crafting Pinot Grigio that captures the freshness, purity and effortless appeal of this classic Italian style.

The 2025 vintage benefited from warm, sunny days and cooling alpine breezes, allowing the grapes to ripen evenly while retaining vibrant natural acidity. Carefully selected fruit from premium Veneto vineyards is gently handled to preserve its bright aromatics, delicate texture and lively mineral character, resulting in a Pinot Grigio that is both refreshing and beautifully balanced.

The colour is a brilliant pale straw with green highlights. Aromas of pear, white peach and crisp green apple are complemented by lemon zest, acacia blossom and a subtle hint of almond. The palate is lively and elegant, combining juicy orchard fruit with fresh citrus, a gentle mineral thread and crisp acidity. The finish is clean, refreshing and persistent, leaving a lasting impression of purity and finesse.

Ideal with freshly shucked oysters, grilled whiting, seafood risotto, lemon chicken, zucchini fritters or a simple caprese salad. Enjoy while young to appreciate its vibrant fruit, refreshing acidity and unmistakable Venetian character.
