Alois Lageder Pinot Bianco 2017
Trentino- Alto-Adige, ItalyPinot bianco, or weissburgunder, dates to the mid-19th century in Alto Adige, and like the pinot grigio it is widely planted. The best comes off the cooler sites at elevations between 300 and 500 meters above sea level. The Lageder PB is from vineyards in Magrè, Cortaccia, Salorno, Pochi and Tesimo and like the pinot grigio, the bianco is bright and complex, with just enough orchard fruit flavours to prick your interest before the mineral, chalky, leesy notes kick in at the finish. A simple, but well made, authentic style. Try this with grilled asparagus, fish cakes or lighter pasta dishes. Designed for immediate drinking. Great value.Tasted: 29 September 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Mark Anthony Wine Merchants |
