Enquiry
This wine is a blend of Pinot Bianco, Riesling and a small amount of Traminer Aromatico, in proportions that vary from vintage to vintage. Its personality is closely associated with the presence of Riesling and Traminer, which give a highly aromatic German-style character, while Pinot Bianco provides a delicate ripe fruit. It is fermented in steel and aged in 2,500-litre oak barrels, where it remains on the lees for 12 months. The grape varieties compounding it always mingle well, as required by any self-respecting blend. It is a big, balanced, concentrated wine.
