It delights the palate with its subtle and elegant structure and a clean aftertaste with fine acidity gives this wine a beautifully harmonious finish.

Pinot Blanc

WINE GROWING AREA
The Pinot Blanc vineyards are grown in the Upper Adige Valley and Bassa Atesina at an altitude of 250 – 500 metres. The typical gravelly clay soil provides the ideal growing conditions for this kind of grapes.

HARVEST AND YIELD
Harvest of the Pinot Blanc grapes begins mid to late September. The grapes are picked by hand and the resulting yield is 70 hectolitres of wine per hectare.

VINIFICATION
After a short period of maceration, the freshly picked Pinot Blanc grapes are gently pressed, clarified and fermented in a stainless steel tank, at a constant temperature of 20°C.

RECCOMENDATION
This Pinot Blanc is great as an aperitif or with light, cold and warm starters as well as vegetable dishes and poached fish.
