The Castel Firmian Pinot Grigio Riserva from Mezzacorona comes from the cool Trentino region, at the foot of the Dolomites. Here, large temperature differences between day and night ensure optimal ripening and fresh acidity. This Riserva is a step above the standard Pinot Grigio: more depth, more structure, and subtle maturation due to oak aging.
In the glass, you taste a refined combination of ripe pear, apple, and citrus. Additionally, notes of white flowers, almond, and a light spiciness. The wine has a soft, slightly creamy texture without losing its fresh character. The finish is elegant and slightly mineral, typical of mountain wines from Trentino.
Serve the Castel Firmian Pinot Grigio Riserva at around 8 to 10 degrees. This way, the fresh acidity remains lively and the riper aromas come to the fore.
The Castel Firmian Pinot Grigio Riserva has been partially aged in wood. Approximately 60% ferments in barriques. This gives the wine depth and structure. The remaining 40% ferments in stainless steel to preserve the fresh fruit aromas. After 10-11 months, the wine is blended, resulting in a refined Pinot Grigio with both the fresh characteristics of Trentino and the rich, ripe notes from the wood aging.
While many Pinot Grigios are light and simple, this Riserva offers more complexity. Longer aging, often partly on the lees, creates extra body and length. This makes the wine more gastronomic and versatile at the table.
This wine is perfectly suited to:
