A crisp and carefree white from the sun-drenched hills of Sicily, the 2024 La Bastarda Pinot Grigio is fresh, fruit-driven, and delightfully easy to love—perfect for warm-weather sipping or casual get-togethers.
Taste
Pale straw-yellow with a hint of green, this Pinot Grigio opens with aromas of green apple, pear, and citrus zest, backed by a touch of tropical fruit. On the palate, it’s light-bodied and zesty, with bright notes of lemon, crisp apple, and a whisper of almond. The finish is clean, refreshing, and thirst-quenching.
