Wine information:
Set up in 2003, Adria Vini is a winemaking venture jointly owned by Boutinot and Araldica Vini Piemontesi, the leading co-operative in Piemonte. All areas of production, from grape selection through to vinification, maturation, blending and bottling are meticulously overseen by Araldica's Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese. Working closely with growers and cooperatives, our aim is to produce a range of authentic, well-priced wines from local grape varieties. The mainstay of white wine production is Pinot Grigio, sourced from the Pavia region south of Milan, Friuli and the Veneto, with the addition of Prosecco, and Grillo and Catarratto wines from Sicily. The reds come from mature, low yielding vineyards in Sicily, Puglia and Abruzzo, the source of some of Europe's most undervalued and characterful wines. Our most recent project has brought Cannonau and Vermentino from Sardinia to the portfolio. This sparkling Pinot Grigio Rosé is a blend of Pinot Grigio 87% and Pinot Nero 13%. For all Pinot Grigio lovers - a fresh sparkler, blended with Pinot Nero to give colour and ripe berry aromas. A lively rosé fizz with delicate aromas of red berries and a palate of lush, summer fruits. A Fantastic aperitif. Also goes well with light salads, pasta, rice or summer pudding with cream.
