Pinot Grigio Delle Venezie

Wines

From the volcanic hillsides of Veneto, La Cappuccina Pinot Grigio is an organically farmed expression of one of Italy’s most beloved white grapes. Cool hillside vineyards and basalt-rich soils lend freshness, minerality, and aromatic lift to a wine crafted with precision by the Tessari family.

Bright and refreshing, it offers notes of pear, citrus blossom, white peach, and green apple, balanced by crisp acidity and a clean, mineral-driven finish. Elegant yet approachable, it is a versatile white wine ideal for seafood, light pastas, fresh cheeses, and everyday enjoyment.
