Varietal Birthplace Year
Pinot Blanc Alto Adige 2009
The Terlaner may be an unusual blend outside of northern Italy's Alto Adige, but it's a source of considerable pride within it. The wine has a pale straw color and a ripe bouquet of yellow plum, dusty apricot flowers, grilled pineapple, citrus and wet stones along with some faint grassy notes. On the palate it is dry and clean, with a smooth creamy texture. The flavor is dominated by tropical fruit: pineapple, mango and papaya. There are notions of green apple and a hint of minerals wrapped by a crisp acidity. A plush middle palate leads to a complete and satisfying finish.
Yellow plum, Rainier cherry, apricot, papaya and lemon blossom.
Alto Adige is nestled in northern Italy between the Dolomite foothills and the Southern Alps. This region's mountainous terrain and cool temperatures yield white wines of particular intensity. Wine has been made for more than 2,000 years in Terlano, located in northern Italy's South Tyrol region, where the subtle microclimates yield exceptional whites with multi-faceted flavor. Terlan's vineyards, on south-facing slopes at the foot of Mount Tschöggel, have a sandy, porous soil that captures the sun's heat and allows water to drain, keeping the roots dry and warm. Founded in 1893, Terlan was one of the first producer cooperatives and won a silver medal at the Paris World Exhibition in 1900; today it remains a small operation devoted to quality.
The Terlaner's aromatics and minerality will match well with virtually any Italian-influenced recipe that features seafood. I'd also suggest my Angry Shrimp with Citrus-Spinach Salad for an end-of-summer meal. I love the spice of the chili powder playing against the clean and crisp citrus flavors.
We have used wines from Terlan before and we always say the same thing about the wines: your pronunciation of Mount Tschöggel will improve with every glass! Makes us laugh every time.
