Single variety wine-making with 100% Pinot Blanc grapes. It praises the denomination Alto Adige DOC. It is cultivated in the classical area of Oltradige, where the lands reach 500 meters elevation. The different composition of the soils, characterized by clay, limestone and gravel, make this wine unique. The manual harvest is followed by the soft pressing of the entire bunches. The lees are eliminated through natural sedimentation. 50% of the must is then fermented in steel containers at controlled temperature, the other part is fermented in big barrels made of oak (50 hl). 8 months aging on lees.
Features of “Pinot Bianco Plattenriegl” by Girlan winery
The organoleptic aspect reveals a straw yellow colour full of light shades that tend to green. Its perfume is simple but elegant at the same time. It recalls white flowers, apple, citrus fruits and, at the end especially, minerals. The taste is fragrant and structured, easy and persistent.
