This wine represents a fresher, younger and more approachable version within the famous Vineyard Selection Gris, an icon of the winery, made from 100% Pinot Grigio fermented and aged in French oak barrels. Crushed rocks and just ripe peaches on the nose, lemon zest and semi-dried pineapple. Energising and really exuberant, we just love this! There's a bit of quince and more peachy tones, with more crushed rocks and a bitter almond skin long finish.

Practically equidistant between the Slovenian border and the Isonzo river sits Lis Neris, a 70-hectare estate just outside of San Lorenzo in Friuli. The Pecorari family has been at the helm since 1987 and run by Alvaro Pecorari since the early 1980s. He has spent the last few decades working tirelessly to increase the quality of their offering. That hard work has certainly paid off. Focused very much on the international varieties, Alvaro cares for plantings of Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, all planted on calcareous gravel (locally called `claps`) on a small plateau. The soil and location are integral to storing warmth during the day to ensure the grapes achieve full ripeness. Sustainable practices remain at the core and, while Alvaro says modern day technology cannot be disregarded, he applies traditional methods in the vineyard. Hand harvesting and pruning, no use of weed killers and a reduction of sprays all help to ensure the best quality of fruit.
