2024 Prendina Pinot Grigio 0,75 lt
The resulting wine has a broad, fruity, elegant but not invasive aroma, just as it stands out on the palate for its great balance rather than for its power.
The vineyards are located between 90 and 100 meters above sea level with south-east exposure. Spurred Cordon and Guyot training system. Limestone moraine soil with gravel and sand.
Luciano’s passion for the wine world kept intensifying with his son Giulietto and led to the acquisition of Prendina in 1958, an estate in Monzambano. Giulietto, a failed surveyor and keen radioamateur, turned a passion into a manufacturing activity in the 70s. The achievement of the DOC in 1971 further reinforced the family activity and confirmed Custoza among the Italian quality wines. Also, Prendina gained more importance as the first wine labeled Prendina was bottled: a Merlot which became the wine of the house of Gualtiero Marchesi’s famous restaurant. Nonetheless, the winery remained a secondary activity as Giulietto primarily used it to entertain guests, visitors and stakeholders of the leather industry.
