I’ve bought this bottle probably 8 times now. I love it. For me, on the nose it gives off a smell of straw, oak and fruit. It is mid-light weight. — 4 years ago

Elena Walch, Vigna Castel Ringberg Pinot Grigio 2023. Alto Adige DOC, Italy 🇮🇹

Overview
A single-vineyard 100% Pinot Grigio from the Castel Ringberg site in Alto Adige, showcasing depth, structure, and vineyard character far beyond the typical expectations of the variety. This is not a neutral, simple expression, it is layered, textural, and architecturally composed, demonstrating power and harmony in equal measure.

Aromas & Flavors
Ripe pear, yellow apple, and lime blossom lead the aromatic profile, followed by subtle sage, alpine herbs, and a delicate mineral undertone. The fruit is generous yet precise, with floral lift and savory nuance adding dimension.

Mouthfeel
Structured and commanding, yet elegant. Creamy texture and density provide weight without heaviness, while vibrant acidity keeps the wine lifted and focused. The finish is persistent, layered, and beautifully integrated.

Food Pairings
Seared scallops, roasted chicken with herbs, mushroom risotto, alpine cheeses, grilled prawns, or creamy pasta dishes.

Verdict
A commanding, character-driven Pinot Grigio that completely redefines the category. Powerful yet refined, textural yet precise, this is a benchmark single-vineyard expression that showcases Alto Adige’s serious white wine potential.

Did You Know?
Castel Ringberg is one of Alto Adige’s most prestigious vineyard sites, benefiting from significant diurnal shifts that preserve acidity while allowing full phenolic ripeness, a key reason this Pinot Grigio shows such depth and structure.

🍷 Personal Pick
This is Pinot Grigio in a different league, structured, serious, and unapologetically expressive. A reminder that this grape, in the right hands, can be profound. — 4 months ago

Burst of acetic acid, great tamed tannins at the end, mulch nose, candied/dried orange peel, brackish water?

Beautiful copper red/orange tint that reminds me of fall. — 6 years ago
