James Suckling, 91 Points 

"Plenty of crisp apple and green-bean character here, but also quite a bit more substance and structure than is normal for a regular Alto Adige pinot grigio. Surprisingly long and complex finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink now. Screw cap." 

Winemakers Note: 

"Straw yellow color. Typical varietal bouquet, very full and rich. Amply structured, with a balanced and persistent taste. The Pinot Grigio is graced with lovely purity in its clean, focused fruit."
