Diego Bolognani is one of the most knowledgeable and commited winemakers of Trentino. This Alpine growing region is perfect for Pinot Grigio.
If you are looking for a wine to drink while sitting on the beach or pool this summer, it doesn’t get much better than Bolognani. Diego produces some of the most delicious Pinot Grigios in Italy. It’s handcrafted and is picked up, shipped, stored and delivered at 56 degrees so it tastes in Middletown, NJ overlooking the Navisink exactly how it tastes in Trento overlooking the Dolomite Mountains.
I’ve got two lots of news for you – good and bad. First, the good news is that the 2019 has just arrived and it’s even better than the 2018! A very difficult spring – marked by early hail & and the wettest May in a decade – finally gave way to the perfect summer and a miraculous extended fall (harvest was a full two weeks later than in 2018). So I wine that is always in my arsenal of go-to wines if this year’s Top White Wine of the Summer.
It’s everything you want in Pinot Grigio….aromatic, crisp and clean. Load up on the new vintage and drink it while it’s fresh!

If I had to think of one wine to pair with a hot dog and the works it would probably be Diego Bolognani’s brilliant Pinot Grigio.
The 2016 vintage in Napa was nearly perfect for winemaker Kian Tavakoli (Opus One, Clos du Val). With ideal weather all throughout harvest, he crafted the Faustini Money Road Chardonnay off the famous vineyard located in the coveted Oakville AVA. The picturesque vineyard off Oakville Crossroad is platinum rated, known for its ideal combination of soil & climate and the big A list names that routinely source fruit. Kian’s Money Road Chard is still youthful despite having a few years of age, probably as a result of its 18 months of slumber in 1/4 new Oak.
97 Pts (Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast)
The 2005 Yquem starts out incredibly welcoming with seductive aromas. The mouthfeel offers perfect balance with fresh acidity and elegance complimenting the wine’s power and giving it tremendous grace. It’s crazy good right now, but I think I will defer to Lisa Perotti-Brown, who said in her 97-pt review of this classic wine just last year, “This decadent flavor bomb still needs a good five to seven years in bottle before it is set to go off, but oh what a spectacle it will give then!” From what it’s already showing, this can be one special bottle for Sauternes collectors.
Year in, year out Château Turcaud produces one of the best white wine values in the world. It’s long been found on Michelin-starred wine lists in Paris and we’ve had it at the restaurant since Day 1. If you’ve ever tried this stunning, classic Bordeaux of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Sauvignon Gris and Muscadlle, then you know why. The 2019 has just arrived, and it’s as fresh and as delicious as you could want. Enjoy.
93 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Mike Grgich’s 1973 Chateau Montelena was chosen as the best white wine in the world, sending shockwaves throughout the wine community and cementing the U.S. winemaker’s legacy amongst the world’s best. Since then, he’s oft referred to as “The King of Chardonnay”. In 2017, he earned his highest score ever from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate for his Estate Grown Chard with a delicious Chardonnay in his signature style. Opting to forego malolactic fermentation, this wine is extraordinarily crisp and vibrant with notes of Granny Smith Apple, Meyers lemon, melon and a hint of nuttiness. This is another winner from the legend.
