2017 Pinot Bianco Schulthauser St. Michael-Eppan
Pinot blanc, South Tyrol's most important grape variety, has awakened from its slumber and has evolved a calling-card wine for the region. Schulthauser, having been vinified and bottled for the first time in 1986, is the consummate South Tyrolean Pinot blanc. 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.
Colour: Straw yellow with a green shimmer.
Nose: Clean fruity notes of apple, apricot and pear.
Palate: Lively and balanced with a fruit-incised creaminess.
Pairing Recommendations: 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.
