Cantina Zaccagnini Pinot Grigio 2018

Cantina Zaccagnini Pinot Grigio hails from the picturesque Terre di Chieti region in Abruzzo, Italy, by Az. Agricola Ciccio Zaccagnini s.r.l. This wine is crafted exclusively from 100% Pinot Gris grapes, known for their delicate pinkish gray hue and vibrant flavor profile. The winemaking process involves careful harvesting of the grapes at optimal ripeness to ensure a perfect balance of acidity and fruitiness. Following the harvest, the grapes undergo crushing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve their fresh and aromatic qualities.

Aging is minimal, with the wine spending a short time in stainless steel to maintain its crisp and refreshing character. This approach ensures the wine retains its light yellow color with green nuances and a fragrant, well balanced bouquet with 12.5% alcohol by volume (ABV).

Regarding food pairings, the Cantina Zaccagnini Pinot Grigio is incredibly versatile. Its zesty acidity and light body make it an excellent match for seafood dishes, salads, and light pasta. It also pairs wonderfully with mild cheeses and cured meats, making it a delightful companion for various culinary delights.
