2024 St. Michael-Eppan - Alto Adige DOC Pinot Bianco Schulthauser (750ml)
The 2024 St. Michael-Eppan Alto Adige DOC Pinot Bianco Schulthauser delivers a dry, mineral-driven white wine characterized by pronounced acidity and notable saline tension. Housed in a standard 750ml format, this estate bottling leverages South Tyrol’s high-elevation vineyards to produce a wine that remains lean, focused, and highly adaptable to everyday dining.
Tasting Profile: The palate opens with bright green apple, wet stone, and subtle citrus blossom. Careful harvest timing preserves the grape’s natural freshness while allowing a balanced presence of pear and white peach tones to emerge. The finish is clean and linear, holding onto a faint herbal bitterness that keeps the fruit weight in check without adding residue or heaviness.
Suggested Foods: This Pinot Bianco cuts through rich flavors without overpowering delicate ingredients. Serve chilled alongside grilled branzino, shrimp scampi, or mushroom risotto. It performs equally well with herb-roasted poultry, fennel and goat cheese salads, or simply with crusty bread and pressed olive oil for casual gatherings.
Grown under controlled canopy management to maximize sunlight exposure and airflow, the Schulthauser selection represents a deliberate step above base releases at St. Michael-Eppan. Each vintage reflects precise picking schedules designed to lock in acidity before sugar accumulation peaks. Order the 750ml bottle to secure a consistent expression of one of Europe’s most disciplined white wine terroirs, whether for immediate service or medium-term cellaring.
