Vigneti Fantinel 2006 Vigneti Sant'Helena Pinot Grigio (Collio)

The wine opens with a saturated golden color and a thick, viscous appearance followed by aromas of honey, white peach and passion fruit. It’s a very different, and, yes, superior, style of Pinot Grigio with an emphasis on structure and elegance. The wine offers flavors of mature fruit and crisp acidity in the mouth. — M.L. (7/1/2008)

Vigneti Fantinel 2006 Borgo Tesis Pinot Grigio (Friuli Grave)

Instead of the characteristic citrus and stone fruit aromas you usually associate with a PG, this Italian white offers mature aromas of apricot, melon and even a spot of white peppercorn. It has a perky personality and ends with a crisp note of spice. — M.L. (7/1/2008)

points

Vigneti Fantinel 2006 Vigneti Sant'Helena Tocai Friulano (Collio)

The nose here exhibits floral- and candy-like aromas of acacia flower and butterscotch. It’s an easy and approachable wine with medium density, texture and persistency that would wash down well with seafood or light summer fare. — M.L. (11/15/2008)
