Pinot Grigio Unterebner is an exceptional wine: golden yellow in colour, with elegant aromas of blossom honey, lavender and tropical fruits. Delicate, buttery notes; very well-balanced and charismatic, with a long and full-bodied finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Typical fruit notes for the variety, tobacco leaves, a hint of bergamot. On the palate, it is full-bodied, juicy and spicy, with a zesty acidity and a dark, firm structure; an exciting, invigorating wine." Weinwisser

"The Unterebner Pinot Grigio is a crisp and vibrant wine with bright aromas of citrus, grapefruit, white flowers and crushed stone. The grapes come from a 4.5-hectare vineyard with a subsoil of porphyry and a surface layer of gravel. Enjoy this wine within the next two years, whilst the aromas are still fresh." Wine Advocate

"A smooth, elegant white wine with notes of graphite, white pepper and Meyer lemon zest, which complement the aromas of poached pear and apple, blanched almonds, toast and lentils. On the palate, it is full-bodied and finely textured, with a racy acidity and a hint of saltiness that define the long finish." Wine Spectator

"The 2023 Pinot Grigio Unterebner entices with notes of freshly cut yellow apple, chamomile and stony earth. It is a prime example of purity, with mineral-tinged white stone fruits and a subtle citrus note that lends it an extra dimension. A hint of juicy acidity enlivens the finish, whilst the 2023 concludes with an airy character that leaves you wanting more." Vinous

"On the nose, this full-bodied yet crisp white wine offers notes of apple slices, pears, cream and almonds. On the palate, it has an appealing saltiness, with excellent body and a long, mineral and salty finish. It will improve even further in a few years' time." James Suckling

"The Unterebner Pinot Grigio comes from higher-altitude vineyards at 400 to 600 metres above sea level and is aged on the lees for 11 months in large oak barrels and tonneaux. It offers a full-bodied profile with an ideal balance between depth and texture that goes beyond the ordinary. Melania Battiston: "It reflects the character of Pinot Grigio with freshness and vigour." The skilful use of oak helps to bring out the notes of candied citrus fruits, yet the wine remains gentle and elegant. Andrea Briccarello: Straw-yellow, golden-green. A nutty, intense, mineral and citrusy nose with hints of chamomile, lemon zest, sage and bread crust. Intense and multi-layered, with a complex, sweet finish of yellow fruits. Bruno Besa: Pure, lively and citrusy, with a wonderful Pinot character. Honey and ripe white fruits, tropical notes. Well-balanced and long-lasting." Decanter
