The Pinot Grigio wine from Teresa Raiz comes from vineyards located within the company estate near Povoletto, in the province of Udine, in an area that has been dedicated to the production of great wines for centuries, particularly with international white grape varieties. The vineyards are cultivated in a beautiful hilly area, on plots characterized by the presence of moraine-origin soils, rich in pebbles and gravel, which make the soil very draining and always dry. The harvest operations are carried out manually in the first weeks of September. The grapes are pressed gently and after 36 hours of static decantation, the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of about 18 °C. The wine is bottled after 6 months of aging sur lie in steel tanks.

The entry on the palate is seductive and intense, with fruity and rich aromas that harmoniously stretch towards a long finish with good taste persistence.
