Casa Maia, Pinot Grigio DOC

Home White Wines Wines Casa Maia, Pinot Grigio DOC

Minini

Stone fruit and citrus aromas, with crispy lemony acidity, honeyed fruit and a balanced, fresh finish.

Producer Information

Minini was established in 1920 when Mr. Francesco Minini, a young soldier, came back to Italy after the First World War. With little money, and a great determination he decided to start a wine business in a rural economy and a poor market. At the beginning of the 1960’s the big growth of the Company forced the Mininis’ to move into a new Winery, which is still the current Head Office.

During all these years the Minini Family never forgot its tight link with the land, developing new cooperation projects with growers all over the main production areas of Italy. This allowed the Family to widen the portfolio of wines to support its introduction on the International markets. Their strategy has been to source new wines from the unique ancient vineyards typical of Italy, with the new technologies of wine-making and Italian tradition.

Wine Making

The grapes were hand harvested during the first 2 weeks of September, then crushed and gently pressed. The juice was allowed to settle and clarify before a cool fermentation at 16c to 18c in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.

Tasting Note

Stone fruit and citrus aromas, with crispy lemony acidity, honeyed fruit and a balanced, fresh finish.

Food Matching

The perfect all-rounder, with white meats, fish, shell fish, salads and vegetables.
