INTRODUCTION

This wine is made exclusively from Grechetto grapes, typical of Umbria and commonly used in Orvieto DOC blends. Bigi began making monovarietal Grechetto in 1993 with particularly interesteding results. Fermentation and ageing in stainless steel vats give the wine its straw- yellow colour, and subtle aromas of cherry and almond blossom and plums. Grechetto Bigi is a very firmly structured white with a pleasing, lingering finish.

TASTING NOTES

Straw-yellow colour. A prominent nose with clear-cut, fragrant cherry and almond blossom, and hints of musk and plums. The palate is tangy, rounded, clean-tasting, well-balanced and firmly structured with a well- defined, pleasingly bitterish peach kernel note in the very lingering finish.
