Giovanni heads a family team of sons Alessio (winemaker), Alberto (vineyard manager) and daughter Angela (administration), who combine their in-depth knowledge of the area with discipline and attention to detail to craft exceptional wines. And it would be remiss of us not to mention the divine cooking of Mireide!
Pinot Grigio exudes lush floral fruit and is both mellow and fresh at the same time with notes of spring flowers, and considerable weight and style at a great price point. Sauvignon, a key varietal in the region, shows typical bell pepper, peach and sage leaves, the palate elegant and complex.
