By far – the top selling Pinot Grigio in Nicholas Wines history is Diego Bolognani’s delectable example from high atop Trento overlooking the Dolomite Mountains. The Bolognani family is very unassuming, but have been quietly crafting some of the best Pinot Grigio in the world for almost 70 years now.
There’s really no close second to Diego’s wines in the region. But that’s not just me saying that. I’ve been on the phone with a handful of producers throughout Alto Adige and Trentino. When I tell them I’m looking for a replacement for Diego Bolognani, there’s been a consensus groan on the other end. Here’s what one of the producers told me: “A replacement for Diego Bolognani? That’s not possible. His Pinot Grigios carry immense weight in Italy; he is viewed as an icon.” Welp.
So it’s with a good deal of sadness that I have to report that Diego Bolognani has decided to retire. This wine life isn’t an easy one and the business will not be passing on to the next generation. So the 2020 Bolognani Pinot Grigio will be the last ever.

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.

If you’ve never heard of Bisci, let’s start here. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate called Giuseppe Bisci’s Verdicchio “one of the finest I’ve ever tasted,” and noted that “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” A staple at $85/bottle for both French Laundry and Eleven Madison Park. “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” – The Wine Advocate
Glistening pale yellow-green to the rim, infused with mouth-watering aromas of ripe apple, pear and quince, and crushed almonds with honey and rich creamy middle and a fantastic rush of acidity and minerality that are present throughout. A calling card of Bonhomme’s Vire-Clesse, if you closed your eyes and took a sip, it would have you convinced you were drinking Meursault at least a 3x price tag.
Just in time, we got back Vincent Ricard’s all-time great white wine bargain. This is a crisp, clean and flat out delicious Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. The protege to the Silex-style of Dagueneau – who over the last 15 years has produced flawless and beloved white wines that at last count were on the wine lists of over 36 Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a great house white and one that can surely hold its own with just about everything on the table.

This is a huge favorite of folks in the Red Bank area. It’s a bold, unapologetic Chardonnay with juicy notes of peach, lemon sorbet, baking spice and vanilla with a rich, creamy middle and plenty of natural acidity to balance it out. The lemon vanilla finish is perhaps the wine’s calling card or the sheer drinkability of it all. Either way, it’s a Chard that people adore. It’s no wonder Wine Enthusiast called this, “a big win for fans of this bold style”.
