Viticulture

The D.O.C. Appellation (Denomination of Controlled Origin) is a guarantee that Candoni Pinot Grigio is produced only with the best grapes cultivated in the Friuli Region in the northeast of Italy. Our vineyard yield is very low which is a result of our quest for quality over quantity. Our winemaking philosophy is to emphasize the grape’s pure varietal taste without the masking affects of oak.

Ratings & Reviews

Vineyard

100% Pinot Grigio from Veneto. Grapes are harvested when perfect ripeness balance is reached.

Vinification

The grape bunches are taken to the cellar, where they are de-stemmed and crushed, and then placed in a pneumatic press where must is separated from the skin and, once cool, left to decant. 75- 96 °F hours later, clarified must fermentation is triggered with temperature 60-64°F. Temperature is lowered to around 46-5° F when alcoholic fermentation is over in order to preserve the aromatic components of the wine.
