The Pinot Grigio grape variety, also called Grauburgunder or Pinot Gris, is currently the most cultivated white wine variety in Alto Adige. The areas subject to Mediterranean influences around Magrè and Salorno have predominantly calcareous soils with a high sand and gravel content and are perfect for cultivating this grape variety of the noble Pinot family.

Alois Lageder Pinot Grigio 2023

The Alois Lageder Pinot Grigio is a refined white wine that beautifully captures the essence of the Pinot Grigio grape variety. This grape variety, also known as Grauburgunder or Pinot Gris, thrives in the sunny and Mediterranean-influenced climate of Alto Adige, especially in the areas around Magrè and Salorno. Here, on the chalky and sandy soils, a wine of the highest quality is created.

Alois Lageder Winery is known for its sustainable and biodynamic approach to wine growing. With over 50 hectares of its own vineyards, this family winery has been striving for four generations to create wines that are in harmony with nature. Their holistic approach and close collaboration with local grape growers make each bottle of wine a unique product that reflects the values of craftsmanship and care for the environment.

The Alois Lageder Pinot Grigio 2023 is a clear wine with a straw yellow color and a subtle golden sheen. In the nose you experience a refined bouquet of flowers, exotic herbs and fruity notes such as peach and melon. The taste is full and rich, with a fresh, spicy and slightly smoky aftertaste. The wine has a medium body and offers a perfect balance between freshness and complexity.

This Pinot Grigio is vinified in the traditional way in stainless steel vats and matures for four months on its fine lees, which gives the wine extra depth and texture. Its delicate flavour makes it ideal to pair with different dishes, such as fish or white meat starters, pâtés, terrines, shellfish, poultry and mushrooms.
