Vintage Details

The 2023 vintage in Alto Adige was characterized by a balanced climate: mild winters, a regular spring, and a summer with good temperature variations between day and night. These conditions favored optimal grape ripening, preserving elegant aromas and a balanced acidity. The result is a wine of great harmony, combining aromatic finesse and structure.

Winemaking and Aging

The Pinot Grigio grapes are hand-picked and vinified "in bianco," meaning they are immediately separated from the skins to preserve the fruit's purity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, to keep the typical fruity and floral notes of the grape intact. After a brief aging period, also in stainless steel, the wine is bottled to maintain its natural freshness and the typical minerality of Alto Adige wines.

Tasting Notes

Color: Bright straw yellow with greenish reflections, clear and luminous. Nose: The bouquet is broad and fine, with hints of green apple, Williams pear, and white flowers. Delicate nuances of almond and a subtle mineral note are perceived on the finish, enhancing its complexity. Palate: On the palate, it is fresh and savory, with a balanced structure and a persistence that leaves a pleasant citrus sensation. The lively acidity supports the sip, making it smooth and inviting.
