Back to top. The name reveals the philosophy behind this Pinot Bianco, which emerges from the interplay between two fundamentally different worlds. On the one hand, the Bassa Atesina near Salorno and Magrè: calcareous soils, Mediterranean warmth, vines on both banks of the Adige. On the other, Dorf Tirol near Merano: volcanic rock, an alpine climate, a completely different energy. Alois Clemens Lageder, the sixth generation at Tòr Löwengang, calls such wines "compositions" – deliberate arrangements of contrasts that only reveal their full potential when brought together.

Aged for nine months on the fine lees, partly in stainless steel and partly in large wooden barrels. Straw-yellow with a greenish tinge, with aromas of pear, white peach and a hint of flint. Slim and linear, with cool minerality and a delicately herbaceous freshness that lingers on final – mountain air in a glass. SUPERIORE.DE

"A neutral wine with aromas of cantaloupe, stone fruit and white pepper. The textured palate is weighty, silky, light-bodied and refreshing, almost crisp." James Suckling
