2024 Ai Galli Pinot Grigio delle Venezie

'Amore, Passione e Tradizione'', that is what this wine producer stands for. Azienda Agricola Ai Galli di Buziol Elide started in the early 70s and today owns almost 50 hectares of its own vineyards. Located in the commune of Lison-Pramaggiore, all plots fall within the DOC Prosecco. With love and passion, wines are produced here in a traditional way using the most modern and innovative vinification techniques. The vineyards are densely planted and the yield per vine is greatly reduced, so that the quality of the grapes increases. And that the quality is more than good, is endorsed by, among others, the Italian wine bible ''Gambero Rosso''

The 2024 Ai Galli Pinot Grigio delle Venezie is a fresh, accessible and characterful white wine from the northeast of Italy, a region known worldwide for its refined style Pinot Grigio. This wine is made from 100% Pinot Grigio and belongs to the DOC delle Venezie, a quality area that extends over the regions of Veneto, Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trentino-Alto Adige.

The wine is characterized by its clear, light yellow color with a silver-green sheen. On the nose it offers fresh aromas of green apple, pear, citrus and a light floral touch, sometimes supplemented with a hint of almond or white flowers. On the palate, this 2024 edition is fresh and lively, with a light to medium body, dry finish and refreshing acidity, which makes it ideal as an aperitif or with light dishes. Despite its accessibility, there is finesse and balance. A very pleasant wine with an excellent price/quality ratio.

WINE-FOOD SUGGESTIONS

Salad with goat cheese, apple and walnuts
The fresh acidity of the wine goes well with the creaminess of the goat cheese and the crunch of apple and walnut. The combination is light and lively, just like the wine.

Grilled chicken fillet with lemon and parsley
The fresh citrus notes of the dish enhance the aromas of the wine. The light structure of the chicken goes well with the fresh, dry profile of Pinot Grigio.

Fried white fish with green vegetables
White fish such as cod or tilapia complement the delicate style of the wine, while green vegetables such as green beans or courgette support the fresh note in the wine without overpowering it.

Pasta with lemon, olive oil and arugula
A simple, light dish that perfectly matches the brightness of the wine. The citrus and bitter rocket accentuate the fresh acidity of the Pinot Grigio.

Bruschetta with tomato and basil
The juiciness and acidity of the tomato go well with the fresh profile of the wine. The herbs such as basil provide a spicy touch that is not too dominant.
