Cantina Terlano, Alto Adige DOC (Italy) Pinot Bianco 2019

Jun 29, 2021

By Wayne Belding

 Cantina Terlano is one of the best cooperative wineries in the world.  Founded in 1893, it has access to some of the best vineyard sites in the Alto Adige.  Meticulous care in the winery results in wines like this outstanding 2019 Pinot Bianco.  The 2019 Terlano Pinot Bianco shows forward aromas of ripe pear, peach, pineapple and tropical fruits backed by floral and spice hints.  The rich fruit unfolds in layers across the palate, ending with a clean and refreshing finish.  The texture is rich and creamy.  This lovely Pinot Bianco has the capacity to cellar well for another 4 to 6 years or more, getting richer in style as it ages.  It’s an extraordinarily versatile food companion as well.
