Pinot grigio

Pinot Grigio (Grey Pinot) is a mutation of Pinot Noir and it originates from France. Pinot Grigio is a vine variety not so easy to cultivate and its growth requires great cares.

Vitacchio’s winery has been cultivating this variety since the 60’s; such a long experience allowed Vitacchio’s winery to know this vine variety very well getting full bodied wines with round and smooth taste.
