Flavour Profile
Pinot Grigio has staged something of a coup in recent years, appearing in fridge doors and on dining tables everywhere. Gorgeously fruity, well-priced examples like this are rare, however.
The wine comes from Scipione Giuliani, who searches throughout Italy to find the finest parcels of grapes, usually blending them to achieve perfect balance. For this Italian Pinot Grigio, he was so taken with the fruit from the high hills of Sicily that there was no need to look elsewhere. The idyllic sunshine and sea breezes of this coastal location create ideal growing conditions.
Il Papavero is mouthwatering stuff, a moreish mix of pear and citrus flavours with both ripeness and bracing freshness. The taste delivers pure delight on its own or paired with white meats or risotto, with elegant fruit notes that showcase Sicily's finest terroir.
