Barboursville | Pinot Grigio
Virginia's answer to Northern Italy, crisp, lively, and bursting with citrus and stone fruit from estate vines.
Barboursville Vineyards' Pinot Grigio brings the Italian-born sensibility of winemaker Luca Paschina to Virginia's Monticello AVA, producing an estate wine that holds its own against the best Northern Italian versions of the grape. Paschina, who was born in Piedmont and trained across Italy before joining Barboursville in 1990, has consistently demonstrated that Virginia's Monticello terroir can produce aromatic white wines of genuine European quality.
The wine is estate-grown and vinified in stainless steel to preserve the grape's natural freshness: vibrant citrus, fresh peach, and white stone fruit on the nose, with a lively palate, crisp acidity, and a clean, mineral finish. It is one of the more food-friendly wines in the TASTE lineup, a natural companion for light pasta, grilled fish, and the shellfish that Virginia's coastline provides in abundance.
Pairs well with:
Grilled Shrimp, Light Pasta, Seared Scallops, Caprese Salad, Soft Cheeses
Virginia wine from an Italian master. The combination shouldn't work, but it does, beautifully.
