Castel Firmian Mezzacorona Trentino Riserva 2023

From the Trentino region in northeast Italy, Pinot Grigio has established a home for itself here. Castel Firmian is the top of the range label for the Mezzacorona operation. A touch of skin contact is used here, to enhance the complexity and texture. Under cork. A deep straw/gold here, the nose offers notes of lemon curd, stewed pears, ginger, florals and orange rind. In Pinot Grigio terms, this falls towards the end of the spectrum which exhibits creamy textures and more complex wines. There is a fine line of acidity, good length and an attractive hint of bitterness at the finish. Drink over the next three to four years.
