Azienda Agricola Villa Varda Friuli Grave Pinot Grigio 2020

We came looking for a fresh take on Friuli’s bounty and found it at the sixteenth-century estate of Villa Varda. The estate has worked hard to preserve the spirit of its humble agricultural roots; indeed, a “warda” – pronounced varda – was a lookout in the hills for peasants tending to the stony land, a place of refuge from the elements. More than a step above most Pinot Grigio wines on the market; this gem showcases Friuli’s mountain grape in its true form, with abundant wildflower aromas and tangy white fruits on the palate.
