Alto Adige (or Sudtirol for German-speaking two-thirds of its inhabitants) is located in northern Italy and borders Veneto to the east, Lombardy to the west and the Tyrol region of Austria to the north. Stretching to 47 degrees north latitude and altitude over 3050 meters, Alto Adige is a region with topographic and climatic extremes. The main wine-growing areas in the region follow the Adige river valley from Merano in the north to Trentino in the south and are planted both at the bottom of the valley and on its slopes, many of which are incredibly steep. Most wines from this region are produced by cooperatives which, due to the need for efficiency in harvesting, wine production and trade, have become known for their constant quality and reliable quantity. Nowadays, there is a tendency to increase the number of independent producers, which also gain a good reputation. The dominant local varieties are the red Schiava and Lagrein, the most common being Schiava (Vernatsch in German), which makes wine with a medium body, low alcohol and tannin levels and is often mixed with the denser Lagrein to give more depth and power of wine. The white varieties used in Alto Adige are the traditional German Muller-Thurgau, Sylvaner and Gewurztraminer, as well as the French Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Bianco and Pinot Grigio. The Pinot Noir plantations have recently increased as well.

Пино гриджо произхожда от Бургундия, където все още има най-голям брой хектари с лозя, благодарение на специфичните климатични условия в региона. Въпреки това този сорт грозде е станал международен, като достига и до Италия, където отглеждането на Пино Гриджо се е разпространило в региони като Фриули-Венеция Джулия, Ломбардия, Венето и Трентино-Алто Адидже. Френското наименование "pinot" произхожда от думата "pin", която означава "бор". Формата на гроздовете му всъщност е като малка борова шишарка - характеристика, която се споделя от всички лози с името "пино". Отглеждането на Pinot Grigio е особено комплексно и изисква специални условия и внимание не само на лозето, но и в избата. Всъщност Pinot Grigio изисква специално местообитание с много хладен климат и съвместими почви, за да се развие растението, което е особено трудно за отглеждане извън районите си на произход. В Италия пино гриджо е едно от най-модерните вина от много години насам, като търговският му успех обаче е съпроводен от значително повишаване на качеството. Естественият му цвят е меден, като всъщност това е единственият сив сорт грозде. Пино гриджо често се винифицира в бяло, но ако се остави да мацерира в контакт с ципите, гроздовата мъст придобива по-естествен оранжев оттенък, както често се случва в Collio, в резултат на което се получават много приятни, плодови, ароматни вина с добра структура. Същата практика е на мода и в Елзас. Пино гриджо присъства с добри резултати и в Германия (Ruländer) и Унгария (Szürkebarat). Лозата Pinot Grigio се отличава с малки, триделни или клиновидни листа и къс, цилиндричен и много компактен грозд. Плодовете са със сферична форма, с тънка слизеста обвивка и розов цвят.
