Emotivo Pinot Grigio 75cl
AED 30.00
Bright and crisp white from Italy, this Pinot Grigio offers lively citrus and green apple notes with a refreshing mineral finish. Perfect for pairing with seafood or light salads, it captures the essence of Italy’s northern vineyards, delivering authentic regional character in every sip.
Crisp, citrusy, and dangerously easy to keep pouring, Emotivo Pinot Grigio is the kind of Italian white you open “just for a glass” and suddenly dinner turns into a whole vibe.
- Appearance: Pale straw with a little green sparkle—bright and clean in the glass.
- Nose: Lemon peel, green apple, pear, and a light white-flower lift, with a faint stony/mineral edge.
- Taste: Zippy citrus and crunchy orchard fruit up front, then a subtle bitter-almond twist that keeps it interesting; dry, with lively acidity that makes food taste better.
- Body: Light-bodied and refreshing, built for long sips rather than heavy contemplation.
- Finish: Snappy and tidy—lingering lemon zest, a touch of saline minerality, and a clean, mouth-watering fade.
This is your fridge-door hero: killer with sushi, grilled shrimp, lemony pasta, or a big salad that needs a wine with enough zip to keep up. It’s also a smart move for aperitivo hour—serve it well-chilled, throw out some salty snacks, and watch it disappear.
What makes it work is the Pinot Grigio style itself: it stays focused on freshness, so you get that crisp fruit and bright acidity without the wine feeling heavy or sleepy. Translation: it’s the bottle you reach for when you want refreshment first, and “maybe another glass” second.
Hosting? This one’s a people-pleaser without being boring. It hits that sweet spot where beginners like it instantly, and more curious drinkers can still geek out over the citrus-meets-mineral thing going on.
If you’re feeling adventurous, try it with spicy food—Thai basil chicken, chilli prawns, even a peppery shawarma wrap. The bright acidity helps cool the heat and resets your palate between bites.
Fun fact: Pinot Grigio grapes are basically a colour-shifter—despite the “grigio” (grey) name, the skins can blush pinkish-grey, which is why you’ll sometimes see slightly deeper-toned Pinot Grigio styles called “ramato.”
