About this wine

Grapes

Pinot Grigio.

Vinification

The wine revives a traditional Friuli Venezia Giulia approach to Pinot Grigio, using brief skin maceration to obtain its copper-pink hue.

Tasting profile

Copper-pink in appearance, with an intense, complex profile and notes of peach, melon and blackberry. The finish is full-bodied, elegant and fresh.

Label / history

Sun Goddess is a limited-edition collaboration between Fantinel and Mary J. Blige, created in Friuli Venezia Giulia. The idea for the Ramato emerged during Blige’s harvest-time visit to Fantinel, when the naturally reddish-grey Pinot Grigio grapes inspired the partners to produce a rosé using the region’s historic method.

The collection’s name evokes Blige’s childhood memories with her mother and her enduring connection to the warmth and energy of the sun.
