Pinot Grigio as it was made here in the 70s, leaving it to macerate on the skins for a night. Not only does the color change, which becomes coppery, onion skin, but also the "juice". It undoubtedly has more character than the Pinot Grigio we are used to. More decisive and evolved aromatic notes already in the young wine: apricot, full body and a curious light tannicity.

San Simone - Friulan Wines since 1915
“Wine making is an art in itself but not just any kind of art. It is an art which does not require only know-how but also loads of passion, love, sacrifice, patience, sensitivity and fantasy. It is essential to have a solid tradition and strong enological culture. This art cannot be merely learned, it is something innate. It is an emotion, and like everything that springs from the heart, it becomes a light for the mind, a scent and an enthusiasm for the life through the transformation of the grapes into wine.”
The Tradition - Selection Line
The Carmenère (Sugano) and Refosco d.p.r. (Re Sugano) grapes are collected from particular zone of vineyards called Sugano in cadastral maps, harvested to perfect ripeness and vinified in steel tanks to preserve the character of each variety. It reveals an important stylistic and territorial footprint. Unmistakable aromas and tastes. Not so much powerful but elegant, very fruity but "light" in alcohol. Amazing not for "muscularity" but for its fineness, lightness and their net traceability to the variety.
