Attems - Pinot Grigio Friuli DOC 2023 cl75

Description

The 2023 vintage began with a rainy January and a dry and cold February.
The evolution of the end of winter and beginning of spring was favorable for a budding in line with the historical average for Pinot Grigio vineyards.
Spring was a season characterized by frequent rains that have particularly engaged us in this beginning of vegetative development. The meticulous selection of the shoots, the longer maintenance of the green manures and good ventilation on dry days, have contributed to maintaining the vineyard in a good state of health.
The summer was hot but never torrid, with several more or less intense rainfalls that periodically rehydrated the soil.
The seasonal fluctuations delayed the ripening of the grapes; the Pinot Grigio harvest began only in early September, with grapes less rich in sugars than average but with a good content of malic and tartaric acid.

This year the Pinot Grigio had more sparse bunches. We split the harvest into as many days as possible, thus managing to maintain a good balance between sugar content and acidity in the musts, which already from the first days of fermentation released excellent aromas.
