Award Winning Winemaker - A breath of fresh air in a world of too much mediocre Pinot Grigio. Baglio al Sole is not only incredibly drinkable but offers so much more! From Villa degli Olmi comes this Pinot Grigio from the famous Grave zone in Friuli, an area where viticulture dates back to the Roman Empire. Fresh and pleasantly soft on the palate with aromas & flavours of light citrus and delicate flowers complemented by green apple & pear, with a dry finish. 

About the Producer

Villa degli Olmi is a cellar with a long tradition for the quality and distinctiveness of its wines. The story begins on horseback between the 19th and 20th centuries, a few years before the Great War, when great-grandfather Giovanni combines the traditional activity of silkworm breeding with the production and trade of wines. The market to which it is aimed, first local, grows as the reputation of the quality of the products spreads among its customers. Already in 1926 Giovanni's wines were awarded the gold medal at important oenological displays of the time. The activity intensified in the following years when the second generation joined the company, giving further impetus to business. Immediately after the Second World War, one of Giovanni's sons, Aurelio, decides to carry out an important autonomous project and open a newly built cellar. He chooses the town of Creazzo as his locality, then a small village close to the city of Vicenza, where his most loyal customers were located.
