Villa Sandi "...one of the grandest wine estates you'll find anywhere." "The beautiful wine region of Prosecco is right on the doorstep of one of the world's most romantic cities - Venice. And while Venice is a destination of timeless appeal, wine styles don't get any hotter right now than prosecco. In Venice, the cool crowd sip on Bellini cocktails made from prosecco and peach juice. in New York and London, spritzes are all the rage, with prosecco mixed with Aperol or Campari. (...). Wine producers here run the gamut from small farmhouse makers with just a few rows of grapes on steep slopes to those with historic mansions like Villa Sandi, which dates back to 1622 and is one of the grandest wine estates you'll find anywhere. The region is alive with cantinas offering tastings and upmarket hotels and eateries catering for the influx of tourists, including Villa Sandi's boutique Loncanda Sandi. (...)."

Pinot Grigio IGT
Made from Pinot Grigio grown in the Veneto IGT (typical geographical indication). The area has loose, dry floodplain soils rich in subsoil. Whole grapes are put into the pneumatic press for soft pressing and the resulting must, after a first racking, is put into controlled temperature fermentation tanks. The wine remains on the lees for several months and is then bottled. The aroma of the wine is of fruity and floral fragrances reminiscent of the countryside in summer. A dry, round and rich taste, with a fruity, warm and well-balanced finish.
