Corte Giara, Pinot Grigio

Country: Italy  Region: Veneto  

Varietal: Pinot Grigio 

Category: White Wine  Style: Dry

Producer: Corte Giara

Corte Giara is the negociant label of Allegrini. The wines are made by Allegrini from fruit bought in from outside their own vineyards. They have a similar stamp of quality that sets them apart from most of the Veronese wines produced at this level.

Winemaker: Franco Allegrini

 Founded in 1989 by the Allegrini family, Corte Giara was created to offer a contemporary, approachable expression of Veneto’s classic varieties while drawing on the Allegrini family’s long-standing winemaking expertise. The wines are produced from grapes hailing from the family’s own vineyards and a trusted network of local growers who share the same commitment to quality and sustainability.

Growers follow eco-conscious viticulture, with no herbicides or pesticides, water use is monitored, and wines are bottled in lightweight glass with environmentally mindful packaging.

Tasting Notes:
Straw yellow in colour. Light and delicate on the nose, characterised by a subtle elegant floral nuance followed by hints of golden delicious apples and distinctive vegetal notes. Dry and medium-bodied, the palate faithfully reflects the nose, being tangy and satisfying, while at the same time simple and exceedingly enjoyable

Food Suggestion:
Try with mixed grilled fish, peppered mussels and clams, sea bass baked in salt, Valencian paella, baccalà (salt cod), chicken salad, nuts and exotic fruit.
