Because Pinot Gris/Grigio is a pink-skinned grape, this skin contact, or orange wine, looks more like a red wine in the glass. It's structured and a bit rustic, with some biscuity, citrusy flavors and aromas and some notes of fuzzy stone fruit.

Antonio Galloni

AG 95
"The 2022 Bianco Sivi, Radikon’s 100% Pinot Grigio that spends eight to ten days macerating on the skins, is a vivid, dark, pink color with violet hues. This is wonderfully fresh and floral with a spicy bouquet that blends rose petals with ginger and incense. It’s potent and savory in style, with juicy acidity to balance the depths of tart citrus and wild berry fruits that cascade throughout. The 2022 tapers off with a balance of sweet spice and cheek-puckering citrus, adding remarkable contrasts through the long and perfumed finale." -Vinous

What importer Bowler Wine has to say about this wine...

100% Pinot Grigio. Radikon's 750ml bottlings are Sasa Radikon's addition to his dad Stanko's original 500ml line: they are still "orange" wines but less intensely so due to a shorter period of skin contact and aging. Otherwise, all of the wines are made identically: the Pinot Grigio is destemmed and fermented with natural yeasts in oak vat, with no temperature control and no sulfur. Maceration lasts for 10-14 days (versus 3 months for the 500ml wines). After a gentle pressing, the wine is put in 3500-liter Slavonian oak barrels for a year and a half on its lees; it is bottled without filtration and with only a miniscule amount of sulfur. This Pinot Grigio bottling was dubbed "Sivi" starting in the 2016 vintage; it means "gray" in Slovenian, in reference to the grayish-pink color of the grape's skin.
