Pinot Bianco arrived in South Tyrol as early as 1850 – and the Schulthaus site, above Castel Moos in Appiano Monte, is probably the most historic Pinot Bianco site in the entire municipality. The Schulthauser has been bottled as an independent wine since 1982 – and since then it has become one of the best-known expressions of this grape variety in South Tyrol. The vineyards lie at an altitude of 540 to 620 metres, exposed to the south-east, on limestone gravel soils with a light clay content – high enough for the evening downdraughts from the Mendel Mountains to have a daily cooling effect. Hand-picked at the end of September. In the cellar: 85% fermentation in steel, 15% in large wooden barrels with malolactic fermentation. Blending in February to create a wine that combines creamy softness and pronounced acidity in rare harmony.

Bright light yellow with green reflections. White blossom, pear, ripe apple, a fine hint of almond and minerality on the nose. Full-bodied, fresh and structured on the palate, with that characteristic interplay between creaminess and acidity that makes Schulthauser unmistakable. A classic – not because it is called that, but because it deserves it. SUPERIORE.DE
