Ermacora's 2019 Friuli Colli Orientali Pinot Grigio (made in stainless steel) is bright and refreshing with simple aromas of Meyer lemon and white peach. Despite the linear and sharp approach of the wine's personality, this vintage offers a touch of extra ripeness and roundness that you perceive in the mouth. That touch of extra creaminess is followed by the spicy or acidic note that always characterizes Pinot Grigio and makes for a classic pairing with a seafood risotto. Some 18,000 bottles were made.

You get some grassy notes with citrus and grapefruit from this expression of Pinot Grigio. The 2017 Friuli Colli Orientali Pinot Grigio has a nice freshness and very linear approach. Yes, it's an easy-drinking wine from a hot vintage but with a bit more oomph and richness. Pair it with a simple cheesy polenta.

Ermacora offers an easy-drinking white from a difficult vintage. The 2014 Friuli Colli Orientali Pinot Grigio delivers on the promises of this workhorse grape. This is a crisp and zesty white that would wash down easily with informal salads or vegetables. Bright citrus, honeydew melon and garden herb add to the pretty bouquet. In the mouth, this Pinot Grigio offers a clean and lean texture.

The 2012 Friuli Colli Orientali Pinot Grigio exhibits that defining mineral characteristic that always lingers at the back of a well-made Friuli Colli Orientali wine. Those mineral tones take center stage and supporting roles are expertly played by stone fruit, citrus and melon. This Pinot Grigio shows a good degree of heft and density on the finish. Drink: 2014-2015. Ipplis is a little town near Cividale del Friuli located at the middle half of the elongated north-south Friuli Colli Orientali appellation. Vineyards blanket the landscape and soils are primarily composed of marl sandstone making for bolder aromatic tendencies in the wines. Ermacora is one of the bigger estates with 75 hectares of vine. It was founded by third generation wine growers Dario and Luciano Ermacora. Importer: Premier Wine Company, www.klwines.com

This luminous wine breaks the myth that says Pinot Grigio is not a wine of depth or personality. You’ll get both here in the form of peach, nectarine, honeysuckle and orange zest. The wine is creamy, plush and slightly sweet on the close. We liked this vintage better than 2006.——M.L.(8/1/2009)—— 87
