St. Michael-Eppan Weissburgunder Pinot Bianco 2018, Sudtirol, Alto Adige

Pinot blanc, South Tyrol's most important grape variety, has awakened from its slumber and has evolved a calling-card wine for the region. This wine isn’t ostentatious, but is the consummate fresh-and-fruity Pinot blanc, the enjoyment of which is found both in its creamy softness and its lively acidity. A premium aperitif and summer wine, it is also quite versatile when it comes to food pairing: it goes well not only with seafood and fish but also with delicate dishes made with wild fowl. It is especially recommended as an accompaniment to South Tyrolean Schlutzkrapfen.
