Cantina Tramin, Alto Adige (Italy) Pinot Bianco 2020

 Indisputably delicious and highly versatile, this “Moriz” bottling from Tramin also offers excellent value.  I’m often able to find it at retail for less than $20, and buy it in every vintage, and have never pulled the cork on a bottle that proved disappointing.  Medium-bodied with very good acidity-to-fruit balance, this is a classic specimen of the breed, with lots of little aromatic and flavor details — but none that stands out so prominently as to obscure the others.  Recommended food pairing?  Anything that goes with white wine, and some dishes that you wouldn’t guess would go with white wine, or nothing at all — as this is a delicious sipping wine as well.
