2022 Villa Job 'Piantagrane'

Place: Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy

Variety: Pinot Grigio

Farming: Organic

Located in Friuli Pozzuolo, Villa job is the estate of vinous power couple Alessandro Job and Lavinia Monrreale. The estate is 6.5 Ha, with soils comprising clay, sandstone and marl. The vines on average are 20 years old and farmed organically. We have been blown away by the freshness and vitality of these wines, kicking ourselves for not discovering them sooner!

Piantagrane is 100% Pinot Grigio, with spontaneous fermentation in open barrels, followed by a maceration on the skins for 3 days, aging in concrete tanks and exhausted oak barrels for 9 months. Think white flowers and peaches, with a round, savoury finish. Drink cool, but not cold.
