Braide
Stony soils on the alluvial flatlands around Pordenone, in western Friuli, make for well-drained vineyards that keep the vines strong and healthy, even in the wettest years.
The father and son team of Eginio and Rino Russolo keep the yields low as well, further boosting the quality of these wines and concentrating varietal character.
The Pinot Grigio is one of the best examples at the price anywhere, with a slightly mineral tang on the herbaceous palate.
Aromas of pear fruit, musk and light candy notes, the palate is nicely weighted showing pear fruit with herbaceous notes held together with mineral acidity.
