Borgo Conventi COLLIO Pinot Grigio DOC 2024 13,5% Vol. 0,75l

The Borgo Conventi COLLIO Pinot Grigio DOC 2024, 12% ABV, in a 0.75-liter bottle, is an elegant Italian white wine from the renowned Collio DOC region in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. The historic Borgo Conventi winery looks back on an eventful history, with its name tracing back to an ancient legend about a noble landowner, a monk, and the first monastery in the Farra d’Isonzo area. Its modern success story began in 1975 with the founding of the winery by Gianni Vescovo, whose mission was to produce elegant, terroir-driven wines of the highest quality. Since 2019, Borgo Conventi has been part of the Villa Sandi Group and is managed by the Moretti Polegato family, who also own the renowned Villa Sandi winery. With the acquisition, investments in vineyards and cellar technology were further expanded, and the sustainable quality philosophy was consistently upheld. The result is wines full of character that authentically reflect the unique qualities of the Collio terroir.

The 2024 vintage is made exclusively from the Pinot Grigio grape variety. After harvest, the grapes are gently pressed without maceration. Temperature-controlled fermentation with selected yeasts takes place in stainless steel tanks for about ten days, optimally preserving the variety’s characteristic freshness and aromatics. The wine then ages on the fine lees until spring, which lends it additional body and complexity. The result is a harmonious Collio Pinot Grigio DOC that combines elegance, freshness, and subtle minerality. Thanks to its balanced structure, it is ideal for drinking now but also has aging potential of several years.
