This is a special Pinot Grigio from Alessandro Gallici, with whom we’ve been working since 2002. He just knows all the best spots for seriously good grapes. From his top tips for Pinot, he’s crafted us this super citrusy, crisp white.

More information
When you ask Alessandro Gallici if he comes from a family of winemakers he laughs gently at the notion – no, his father was a truck driver. However, he was born in Friuli and his family had a little bit of land, a few rows of vines that had been theirs for generations. They vinified the fruit in a shed just for their own consumption. All this fascinated Alessandro as he was growing up and winemaking became his chosen career. For some years he was president of an important local winery but in 2010 he started up on his own. Made with grapes selected from top areas within the region – Colli Orientali and Grave – this wine delivers delicate pear fruit and crisp minerally ‘zing’. Enjoy solo or with salads, mushroom ravioli or creamy linguine.
