Region
The DOC region of Delle Venezie lies in the northeast of Italy. The Venezie in the title is not the city of Venice but the Tre Venezie (the `three Venices`). Venezia Euganea, Venezia Giulia and Venezia Tridentina. These are the names of three Italian administrative regions which existed between 1866 and 1919 and correspond to the modern-day regions of Veneto, Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trentino-Alto Adige.
Created in 2017, the DOC covers the Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Trentino-Alto Adige and Veneto regions, and permits the use of Chardonnay, Friulano, Garganega, Müller-Thurgau, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio and Verduzzo.
Producer
The company was born as a retailer in 1928 in the Veneto region for sales of wines in casks and demi-johns to restaurants and small retailers. The company is now run by the third generation and from their roots in Veneto they now have a portfolio of wines produced in some of Italy’s finest regions. Botter pride themselves on their focus of sustainability, going beyond reducing emissions, production of waste and non-renewable energy usage and taking a responsible approach for the whole production chain.
Tasting Notes
Made from 100% Pinot Grigio, and fermented in stainless steel at cool temperatures to create a fresh, fruity and easy drinking wine, which as a style has become one of Italy`s flagship white wines. Pale and delicate lemon-green in appearance and on the nose displaying aromas of lemons, apples and white blossom. The palate is full of citrus, pear and melon. Crisp and dry, it has a well balanced acidity with a refined and lingering finish.
Food
Excellent as an aperitif on a summers evening, otherwise pairs perfectly with white fish or grilled chicken.
