Arriving in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region around the mid-1800s, Pinot Grigio found an ideal environment here, capable of enhancing the natural qualities of this gray grape variety. Thanks to its exceptional adaptation, Pinot Grigio is now the most cultivated variety in Collio Goriziano, a record shared with two other traditional grape varieties, Friulano and Sauvignon Blanc.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFormentini Collio Pinot Grigio originates solely from grapes of the same variety grown on hilly terrain consisting of the so-called \"ponca,\" a type of soil formed by an alternation of layers of marl and sandstone. In addition to the peculiar pedological matrix, the vines benefit from excellent exposure and significant temperature variations between day and night, a factor that promotes \u003cstrong\u003eoptimal accumulation of aromatic precursors\u003c\/strong\u003e in the grapes. Harvesting takes place during the first half of September and is followed by destemming and subsequent gentle pressing of the clusters, with the resulting must undergoing alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. The maturation phase also takes place in steel on the fine lees, containers in which the wine rests for several months until the final bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFormentini Collio Pinot Grigio has a bright straw yellow color with greenish reflections.
