Bollini, ever the reliable mid-priced pinot grigio producer, turned out a fine effort in 2012. Medium-bodied, this offers relatively smooth, almost buttery texture for an Italian grigio. That's likely owing to a brief aging period on the lees, or spent yeast cells, which tends to contribute substantial texture.
