Details
Yet another delicious Pinot Grigio from Italy's Veneto. This zesty white boasts notes of waxy lemons, nuts and a subtle white florality. Clean and easy-drinking, this is the perfect wine for kicking back to after a hard day's work.

The Albenza range of wines comes to us via the ever-talented team from the Natale Verga company. These guys are extremely important operators in Italy, with access to a host of vineyards spanning multiple regions around Italy. This range of wines represents a quite brilliant, pure and faithful account of some of Italy's most popular grape varieties, made at an incredible value to wine lovers. With Albenza , we are heading to northern Italy, to where the fashion of Milan is hot and the lakes are blue. Here you will find that aside from fashion that will strip most bank accounts, there are equally delicious wines from Veneto to Piedmonte. Here Verga have sourced some amazing Soave and Pinot Grigio for the white wine drinkers. Each wine shows amazing differences even though they are sourced relatively closely to each other.
