2020 TERLANO ALTO ADIGE PINOT BIANCO
2020 TERLANO PINOT BIANCO ALTO ADIGE, ITALY. 100% Pinot Blanc.
With wonderful aromas of apple cider, chalk and lemon zest, this clean and focused wine expands on the palate to reveal warm apple crisp, clove and quince nuances. Possessing a long, concentrated citrus finish, this wine pairs perfectly with roasted pork, shellfish and egg-based sauces or as a charming cocktail beverage.
92 points James Suckling: "A very striking pinot bianco that combines concentration and elegance with stony minerality. Hints of exotic fruit, flowers and spices make this a fascinating expression of this still underrated grape. Drink or hold."
From the winemaker: "Pinot Bianco has always been one of the most important wines at Cantina Terlano; it lends powerful expression to the terroir where their grapes mature. As a varietal, the delicate and above all mineral Pinot Bianco, is a hallmark of the winery."
About: Founded in 1893, Cantina Terlano has grown into one of the leading wine growers' cooperatives in the Alto Adige region of northeastern Italy. Located in the Dolomite Mountains in the foothills of the Alps, Terlano's distinctive location and extraordinary terroir are key to the development of their stunning, world-renowned wines. With a current membership of 143 growers farming a total area of 165 hectares, Terlano insures the highest standards of quality by compensating growers for the quality of their grapes not the quantity. The emphasis in the vineyard is on reducing yield in favor of producing more concentrated fruit.
