Naturally, this refers to a high-quality product that must comply with production criteria (such as alcohol content, organoleptic characteristics, and aging) established by a Ministerial Decree. Only wines that comply with the guidelines set forth in this administrative act may bear the DOC designation.<br \/>\nPinot Grigio delle Venezie DOC is a product that embodies new values rooted in the history and tradition of cultivating this grape variety in the Triveneto region, a tradition dating back to the late 1800s.  <\/p>\n<p>The new regulations stipulate that Pinot Grigio grapes must be grown exclusively in Veneto, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and Trentino. The permitted types are: Pinot Grigio, Pinot Grigio Frizzante, and Pinot Grigio Spumante. The Pinot Grigio variety must account for at least 85% of the blend; the remaining 15% may consist of complementary native grape varieties.<br \/>\nStarting with the 2017 harvest, every bottle of Pinot Grigio delle Venezie DOC must also bear the State Band, which will feature a unique, traceable number along with the name and logo of the appellation. It will be blue in color, as with Prosecco DOC.   <\/p>\n<p>The entry into force of the new DOC delle Venezie designation has brought about a further change: the former \u201cdelle Venezie IGT (Typical Geographical Indication)\u201d will become \u201cTREVENEZIE IGT.\u201d This change will take effect starting with the 2017 harvest. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dellevenezie.it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>VISIT THE CONSORTIUM&#8217;S WEBSITE<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019re almost there\u2014the Pinot Grigio is nearly ready to be harvested, and the 2017 vintage will mark a major change: Pinot Grigio delle Venezie IGT will become Pinot Grigio delle Venezie DOC.
