Santa Cristina Pinot Grigio 2017

The 2017 Pinot Grigio by Santa Cristina offers fruity and delicate aromas of pineapple, green apples, and lemon peel. Light and well-balanced flavors characterized by softness and ripeness.

Winemaking: Harvested grapes were brought to the cellar, destemmed and gently crushed and pressed. The must was chilled to a temperature of 8 °C (46 °F) to encourage a natural clarification of sediment. The wine was transferred into temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation occurred at a temperature that did not exceed 17 °C (63 °F). The wine was aged in stainless steel tanks at a constant temperature of 10 °C (50 °F), filtered then bottled.
