Kellerei Kaltern Caldaro Pinot Grigio 2011, Doc Alto Adige, Italy




This wine is made with 100% Pinot Gris, with fermentation at a controlled temperature of 18°C, 4 months ageing on the fine lees in stainless steel and alcohol coming in at 14%.

A bright yellow in color, this Pinot Grigio opened up with aromas of tangerine, pear, apple, nutty and floral notes. On the mouthfeel, medium-full bodied, crisp and lively flavours with excellent fruit-acid balance. Very good length on the finish, intense flavours of citrus and tropical fruit plus a noticeable minerality. This is a very enjoyable cool climate wine and a superb value at this price. Strongly recommended, score 89 points.
