Hails from the cool and mountainous north-east of Italy, the Südtirol-Alto Adige region. Offers a lot more than your average pinot grigio with a deep concentration of fruit, acid tension and fine minerality. The regional style helps define a linear and taut version of pinot grigio. Deep scents of yellow apple, honeysuckle, citrus, lemon curd, pear, fennel seed and mountain wild pepper. Layer upon layer of flavour, minerality, graceful bright acidity, deep spice, emerge across the palate. This is a wine of great length and presence, perfectly pitched for a serious food pairing. I’m thinking anything involving pork.
92 pts - Ken Gargett (Wine Pilot)A fine Pinot Grigio from the Sud Tirol region, more specifically Trentino/Alto Adige. Deep straw hue, with the merest hint of green flecks. The nose provides aromas of pears, nuts, hessian and stonefruits, while the palate sees the emergence of orange rind. A supple texture, seamless, and with good intensity, there is good length here, and a lingering finish plus a fine line of acidity. Enjoy it now and over the next two to four years – an excellent introduction to Italian Pinot Grigio
