Alessandro Gallici Pinot Grigio 2023

Pinot Grigio has taken the U.S. by storm in recent years, challenging Chardonnay as the No. 1 white. If you’re talking the ultimate guest-greeting, light-sipping wine, there really is nothing more refreshing.

For the best, we head to Pinot Grigio’s spiritual home: the cool, mountain-ringed vineyards of Venezie, in northern Italy. We get our fix (and yours) from maestro Alessandro Gallici, who has a passion for crafting pure, invigorating Pinot Grigio.

As you’ll taste, Alessandro manages to capture the grape’s every perfumed, peach-filled nuance. Deliciously crisp, with a tingly minerality we’d almost liken to fine Chablis, this wine makes an elegant dinner party aperitivo. Or, pair it with fresh fish and vegetarian dishes—all the better if they offer an Italian flair. Try lemon-basil calamari or white pizza with arugula and Gorgonzola.

This perennial favorite always sells quickly. Hurry for your share.
