Volpe Pasini (Italy)

Friuli Colli Orientali (Friuli-Venezia Giulia)

Pinot Bianco
White Wine	Score: ✧✧✧✧✭

The wine shows a pale straw yellow color and nuances of greenish yellow, very transparent. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant aromas which start with hints of peach, pear and lemon followed by aromas of apple, pineapple, gooseberry, white rose, acacia, broom, hazelnut and vanilla. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp attack and pleasing smoothness, however well balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of lemon, pear and peach. A well made wine. Part of this Pinot Blanc ages in steel tanks and the other part in barrique.
