🇮🇹 Flora Lisa Pinot Grigio 2024 (Terre d’Abruzzo)

This is Pinot Grigio with main character energy, not background music. Clean, bright, and just textured enough to make your usual “easy white” feel a little too basic.

Wine Description 

Flora Lisa Pinot Grigio 2024 comes from Abruzzo’s Terre d’Abruzzo and it’s built to be crisp without being thin. It’s mostly Pinot Grigio, then it gets a smart little glow-up from local grapes that sharpen the edges and add some shape. 

Winebow created Flora Lisa as a super premium Pinot Grigio made from organic grapes, produced exclusively for them by Passione Natura, a winery known for organic and biodynamic work in Abruzzo. The 2024 tech sheet also calls out sustainability in the packaging materials, so yes, it’s trying to be hot and responsible. 

Winemaker mention, because she matters: Giulia La Scorciosa is listed as the winemaker for this vintage, and the brand launch materials position her as an Abruzzo native committed to organic farming as a quality driver. 

Vine-To-Table: Meet the Winemaker

Giulia La Scorciosa is the named winemaker for Flora Lisa, and Winebow’s launch notes highlight her Abruzzo roots plus a philosophy that organic farming is not a vibe, it’s a quality strategy. She’s also credited alongside enologist Paolo Ulpiani in the brand launch materials. 

The Vibe 

Beach day in a linen shirt you did not iron, but somehow it looks intentional. Bright, refreshing, a little salty, and not afraid of flavor, which is rare for Pinot Grigio in this price lane.

What it tastes like

From the producer tech sheet: expect ripe pear and peach leaning into citrus, with a saline mineral note and a rounder texture than most northern style Pinot Grigio. Wine Enthusiast leans savory on the aromatics with preserved lemon and spice, then keeps the palate cool with lemon and lime.

Pairing + When to drink it 

This is your “seafood yes” bottle, but it also loves simple chicken and pasta that isn’t drowning in cream. Drink it now through the next couple of years while it’s all about freshness and snap.

FAQs

Q: Who actually makes Flora Lisa Pinot Grigio, and why does Winebow matter here?
A: Flora Lisa is a Winebow Imports brand, and the launch materials say it’s produced exclusively for Winebow by Passione Natura in Abruzzo. That matters because it explains why you’ll see Winebow listed as the US importer and why the wine is built specifically for the US market.

Q: What’s the “muse” story behind the Flora Lisa name and label?
A: Winebow’s launch release says the brand and label were inspired by the idea of “the muse,” a recurring theme in Italian art from the Renaissance into modern culture. So yes, it’s a Pinot Grigio with a concept. 

Q: Why isn’t this 100% Pinot Grigio, and what are the other grapes?
A: The 2024 tech sheet lists a blend: 85% Pinot Grigio, plus Pecorino and Trebbiano Abruzzese. The same sheet explains the intent, Pecorino boosts acidity while Trebbiano Abruzzese adds texture and roundness. 

Q: What does Terre d’Abruzzo IGP actually mean?
A: The EU filing for “Terre Abruzzesi / Terre d’Abruzzo” identifies it as an IGP, and it covers the broader Abruzzo region as a protected geographic indication. It’s the kind of designation meant to signal origin with more flexibility than DOC or DOCG. 

Q: Who is the winemaker Giulia La Scorciosa, in one grounded detail?
A: She’s listed as the winemaker on the 2024 technical sheet, and Winebow’s launch materials describe her as an Abruzzo native who connects organic farming to higher wine quality. She’s also mentioned alongside enologist Paolo Ulpiani in the same release.
