Wine Ingredients

Method

Wine Preparation

  1. 1

    Harvesting Grapes

    Carefully pick and wash the Pinot Grigio grapes to ensure they are clean and free from debris.

  2. 2

    Crushing Grapes

    Crush the harvested grapes in a sanitized container to release the juice. Make sure to keep the skins intact to enhance flavor.

  3. 3

    Adding Ingredients

    Mix in sulfur dioxide to prevent oxidation and spoilage, followed by adding the yeast to initiate fermentation.

  4. 4

    Fermentation

    Add water to the mixture and cover with a cloth. Allow it to ferment in a cool, dark place for about 2-3 weeks, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Pressing

    After fermentation, press the mixture to separate the liquid from the solids. Collect the wine in a clean container.

  6. 6

    Aging

    Transfer the wine to a glass or stainless steel container for aging. Allow it to age for at least 4-6 months for optimal flavor development.

Serving Suggestions

  1. 7

    Preparing Tasting Notes

    Before serving, prepare the tasting notes by slicing the green apple and pear, and zesting the lemon. Arrange them on a platter.

  2. 8

    Garnishing

    Add fresh herbs on top of the fruit slices to enhance the aroma and visual appeal.

  3. 9

    Serving

    Pour the Pinot Grigio into wine glasses and serve with the platter of sliced fruits and herbs for a refreshing experience.
