Cantata Pinot Grigio Blush is coppery pink, tinged with rose highlights. The nose is delicate but distinctive, showing ripe fruit, a touch of the variety's typical spice and a suggestion of red berries and citrus. Well flavoured and rounded, this blush Pinot Grigio is crisp and fresh all the way through to the finish.

Grown on the plain of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, an area well known for its winemaking expertise, the nature of its soil and its particularly mild climate that all contribute to create ideal conditions for vine growth.
Pinot Grigio evolved from Pinot Nero and, when ripe, the grapes turn a warm coppery colour. For the most part Pinot Grigio is vinified as a white, but thanks to the touch of colour in its skins a blush wine has traditionally been produced in this area for a very long time.
