Above Margreid, where the Mediterranean climate of the lowlands gives way to the coolness of the higher altitudes, lies the Penon. A single vineyard at an altitude of 500 to 600 metres, facing east-southeast – to the morning sun, which sweeps gently and evenly across the vineyard before the afternoon heat sets in. The soil is pure: exclusively limestone gravel with a high humus content. No porphyry, no volcanic deposits, no mixed rock. Just limestone – and, within this limestone, the most concentrated minerality that Nals Margreid has to offer for Pinot Bianco. The Penon is not a ‘Tradition’ wine, but one of the estate’s ‘Selection’ wines: a single vineyard vinified according to the estate’s own style. Hand-harvested, carefully processed, and further aged sur lies in stainless steel.

Bright straw yellow with greenish highlights. The bouquet is elegant and precise: Golden Delicious apple, citrus, white peach, and a mineral limestone undertone that reveals its origin. On the palate, it has a clear structure and fine acidity, with a long, mineral-driven, cool final. Pinot Bianco grown on its purest limestone soil. SUPERIORE.DE
