2020 Radikon SIVI Pinot Grigio, Venezia Giulia, Italy

The 2020 "S" Sivi has a red grapefruit color. Exotic citrus florals and dried peaches effortlessly waft up from the glass. It's soft-textured yet juicy to the core with motivating acidity and a mix of blood orange and tangerine framed by a salty mineral twang. This leaves the palate completely refreshed and crisp with a light structural tug as hints of sour melon fade. This wild and fun skin-contact Pinot Grigio spends 8-10 days on the skins which imparts it with its unique color and character.
