TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

One of the most important grape varieties in the Collio, Pinot Grigio is one of the most popular varieties of white grape in the region. This wine is golden yellow in color, with copper tones. It is very well-structured, well-balanced, and has a nice, long finish.

Once opened, you are immediately greeted by a strong bouquet of acacia flowers, apples, pear, and melon. On the palate, it is elegantly fruity, with notes of citrus, apple, and pear.

PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS

The Marco Felluga Collio Pinot Grigio Mongris is wonderful for aperitifs, served with crackers and young to medium-aged cheeses. Try it with feta, chevre, ricotta, or gruyere, paired with our crackers from Paul & Pippa.

It also goes brilliantly with green salads, or an appetizer of mushrooms sauteed in olive oil, garlic, and thyme. Enjoy a glass with shellfish dishes, like a tomato-based seafood pasta, or tiger prawns in tomato and basil sauce. Surprisingly, Pinot Grigio is also excellent with a bowl or carbonara.

PRIDE OF COLLIO

Collio became home to the Felluga family (whose wine industry lineage dates back to the 1800s) after they lost their property in Istria following World War II. Marco Felluga graduated from a renowned enology school in Conegliano, and opened his own winery in 1956, following his brother who opened his own in Rosazzo.

In 1967, Marco purchased the estate Russiz Superiore, was about five miles from Gradisca d’Isonzo, where his eponymous winery is located. This added 125 acres of cru-level vineyards to the Felluga business. He decided to operate it as a separate entity, but still owned by the family.

Both Marco Felluga winery and Russiz Superiore are the top wine producers in Collio, an Italian hotbed of white wine production.
