Tasting profile

Structure: medium-bodied, high acidity, dry

Cantina Terlano is the Alto Adige cooperative famous for whites that outlive almost everything else in Italy — they hold library bottles going back decades and release them still fresh. Even the everyday Pinot Grigio carries that house signature: ripe pear and yellow apple over a distinctly stony, almost saline minerality from the porphyry soils, medium-bodied with unusually high acidity for the variety and an almond note on the finish. Dry, precise, and a long way from the neutral Pinot Grigio the name usually implies.
