Alcohol: 12.5 %
Grape(s): 100 % Pinot Grigio
Location: Abruzzo, Italy
Tasting Notes: Bright straw yellow in the glass. The nose is fresh and inviting, offering aromas of ripe yellow apple, pear, and a subtle hint of roasted nuts and gentle spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and refreshingly dry, with a clean, straight profile, balanced acidity, and a light, pleasant texture. The finish is crisp and uncomplicated, leaving behind delicate orchard fruit notes and a touch of minerality.
Notes: The Cirelli Pinot Grigio is an organic wine that emphasizes purity and varietal character. Sourced from the rolling hills of the Teramo province, the grapes benefit from the proximity to both the Adriatic Sea and the Apennine Mountains. Fermented and aged in stainless steel, this wine avoids heavy manipulation to showcase the natural brightness and honest fruit profile of the Abruzzo region.
Food Pairing: An excellent match for grilled white fish, seafood risotto, light antipasti, or fresh goat cheese salads. Its clean finish also makes it a versatile companion for light poultry dishes and summer vegetable pastas.
Winery Story: Agricola Cirelli is a dedicated organic farm managed by Francesco Cirelli. The estate operates on the principle of a "closed-loop" ecosystem, where vineyards coexist with olive groves, grain fields, and livestock. This holistic approach to farming ensures a high degree of biodiversity, which Cirelli believes is essential for producing wines that truly reflect the soul and terroir of the Abruzzese landscape.
