The 2007 Pinot Grigio Dessimis flows with tons of exotic, super-ripe fruit. The Dessimis is typically one of the riper, more extroverted Pinot Grigios readers will taste, and in this vintage those qualities are on full display. Unfortunately the wine comes across as excessively heavy, with aromas that are a touch forward and tannins that finish with a measure of astringency. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2013. Proprietor Gianfranco Gallo is one of the leading producers in Friuli. His wines typically seek a rich, lush expression of fruit. In 2007, though, many of the wines come across as overly heavy. Readers should be aware that Vie di Romans is owned by members of my wife’s extended family. I have always viewed education as an important component of wine criticism. An article on Friuli without these wines would have been incomplete and ultimately the consumer would have been poorer for their exclusion. For those reasons I have chosen to include the wines in this report. Neither my wife nor I have any financial or other interest, direct or indirect, in this property.A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including: de Grazia Imports; tel.
