Pinot Bianco Alto Adige DOC
A standout expression of the variety, showcasing the unique terroir of Alto Adige. Sourced from steep vineyards at altitudes up to 900 meters above sea level, this wine benefits from a combination of cool, high-altitude climates and warmer mid-altitude locations, allowing for a slow, balanced ripening. The grapes are grown on light limestone and porphyric soils, which contribute to its distinctive minerality and fresh, vibrant character. What makes this Pinot Bianco unique is its meticulous winemaking process—gently fermented and aged on fine lees in stainless steel tanks to preserve its purity and elegance. The result is a wine with remarkable mineral depth, lively acidity, and a refreshing finish, offering an exceptional balance of freshness and complexity that sets it apart from other Pinot Biancos.

"Floral notes waft through the glass, like a collaboration between a botanist and a perfumer. Citrus and orchard blossoms lift the aromas, while the palate is bright and tart, layered with a leesy quality and freshly cut apples. The finish is outhwatering and impeccably balanced, where every element shines harmoniously without overshadowing another."
