Attems Pinot Grigio 2020 Review

Attems is a reference to a dynastic rule in the 12th century in Friuli Venezia Giulia. The winery is credited with founding the Collio Wine Consortium (Consorzio dei Vini del Collio) in 1964 by Count Douglas Attems. Today, Frescobaldi has taken the reigns and is carrying on the long tradition of winemaking. This is a defining Friulian Pinot Grigio. It is the epitome of balance and body that can be coaxed out of this shy variety. The nose is inviting, with good fruit and a whiff of river rock minerality. The palate is full and round, hitting every corner of the palate with bracing acidity and depth. There are a lot of wines from this grape out there. This one will set the standard on your palate.
