An orange wine made from Pinot Gris with an 8-month maceration in amphora pots. As delicious as it is surprising! More info

Fuoripista is an orange wine produced from vines grown in sand-rich soil. It is made in cooperation with Marco Devigili, a biodynamic producer in Campo Rotaliano. This cuvée, crafted in 2014, is the domain’s first Pinot Gris. The grapes are picked by hand and the alcoholic fermentation is done by indigenous yeasts after the bunches are destemmed. Skin-contact maceration takes place in amphora pots for 8 months, then the skins are removed for a further ageing of two months in acacia casks. The wine is neither fined nor filtered, and it has only a light dose of sulphite added at the point of bottling. This is a real success, showing itself to be perfectly balanced despite its tannins, rich and very aromatic. It has a lovely bitterness with aromas of blood orange and apricot. A wine to pair with cheese.

Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT Fuoripista Pinot Grigio Elisabetta Foradori serve at a temperature of 11°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Spaghettis à la poutargue, Coq au riesling, Grillades au fromage.

Information about domain Elisabetta Foradori

Elisabetta Foradori is part of a whole movement of Italian winemakers who have sought to re-establish a relationship with the earth through their eco-friendly viticulture. When her father passed away in 1984, Elisabetta Foradori (at the age of just 20) took up the 26 hectares that make up the family domain, which was created in 1901 and is found at the foot of the Dolomites in northern Italy. She has returned the regional Teroldego grape to its former glory. Uninspired by methods that seek quantity over quality, she converted to biodynamics in 2002 (Demeter certification in 2009) with the aim of bringing a certain purity to her wines. In recent years, she has made it her project to revive another varietal, the Nosiola grape. Always striving for a strong identity in her wines, she even vinifies certain cuvées in amphora and terracotta containers. Today, this domain is undoubtedly the most renowned in the Trentino region – the wine made here is truly exceptional.
