An exceptional wine from Foradori, the Fuoripista - ‘off-piste’ - is Pinot Grigio but not as you know it. This minimal intervention beauty spends more than eight months on its skins inside Spanish clay tinajas, producing a wine of energy and decadence that is clean, complex and textural. Amber-hued, with summer forest berries and kiwifruit flavours, a crisp but rich mouthfeel, and an exciting tannin grip to finish. Wondrous.

Elisabetta Foradori is considered one of the most influential winemakers in the world. Her winery is situated in the cool hills of Trentino in northern Italy, and a landscape of extraordinary beauty. Her focus is on the indigenous grapes Nosiola and Teroldego, with Foradori’s examples being amidst some of the best in the world. Since 2002 Elisabetta has farmed her land using biodynamic principles, and her winemaking remains ‘natural’ with very little intervention. Today her children Emilio, Theo and Myrtha oversee the smooth running of the winery, supported by Elisabetta. Foradori wines are artisanal in the true sense of the word; naturally fermented, and aged in various vessels according to their needs: stainless steel for freshness, cement to regulate temperature, or Spanish clay tinajas (amphorae) for their energy and ability for the wine to reconnect with the earth. These wines are scarce and highly sought-after by collectors and wine lovers across the globe. They are truly unique, original wines of personality and purpose, and the Good Pair Days team is very excited to have them on board.
