This Opes Pinot Grigio from Ritterhof Winery showcases the rich and multi-layered side of the grape variety. The vines grow on the southern slopes below the wine village of Caldaro along the South Tyrolean Wine Road, on mineral-rich glacial moraine soils at around 320 meters above sea level.
In the glass, it displays a pale straw-yellow color with green reflections. On the nose, it reveals a complex interplay of fresh white peach, pear and delicate floral aromas, complemented by subtle toasted notes. On the palate, it impresses with elegant richness and depth, delicate vanilla nuances, well-integrated oak and a touch of freshness. Its pleasantly smooth finish makes it a multifaceted white wine with remarkable depth.
