Acclaim
The 2014 Alto Adige Pinot Bianco Anna delivers a good sense of structure, intensity and overall harmony despite the many shortfalls of the vintage. This is a very complete rendition of this workhorse variety that defies the cool and soggy growing conditions in 2014. Some of its peers taste watery and short in comparison. The wine is redolent of stone fruit, pear and sweet almond paste. In the mouth, the wine provides the palate with a solid grip and medium persistence.
— Wine Advocate, Jul 2016
“Delicate scents of yellow apple, white spring flower and citrus lead into the tangy palate along with a note of candied tangerine zest. Bright acidity gives it a clean, crisp finish.”
— Wine Enthusiast, Apr 2016
