Pinot Gris 'Tradition' line by Terlan is part of the Bordeaux vine family, the harvest and selection of the grapes is manual. Refines for 5-7 months in steel barrels. It is a wine that immediately presents itself as very elegant, with a delicate fruity bouquet rich in facets and enchants the palate with a balanced acidity that also remains in the aftertaste. It goes well with South Tyrolean first courses based on speck, bresaola or venison salami, but also typical Italian dishes, such as Parma ham, dried tomatoes and olive pâté, herb risotto, nettle gnocchi or beetroot dumplings. It also pairs well with truffle-based recipes, not too spicy veal and grilled fish.

A winery that does not need presentations, that of Terlano, which for decades is the best, Alto Adige is able to express in terms of finesse and longevity. Founded in 1893 in the same locality not far from Merano, the winery Terlano is one of the most cutting-edge cooperatives of not only all over South Tyrol, but also all over the Italian Peninsula, so that it can be assumed as a symbol of the most perfect cooperation mechanism in the wine sector. Its 143 members grow a total of 165 hectares of vineyards, equivalent to a total annual output that exceeds over a million bottles. Dizzy numbers, which go hand in hand with the best wines of the region, white and red, can punctually agree as few other audiences and critics. So Antonio Galloni of Wine Advocate in 2011: "The best South Tyrolean wines I have tasted this year come from the Cantina Terlano. In a nutshell, they are reference wines. Wines that can not be missed in every important winery ". A road that is the highest quality that the members of the Cantina di Terlano have undertaken with conviction over the decades, and that it was their fame and recognition on the Italian and international wine market. And then there are white pinotas, chardonnay, pinot gray, müller thurgau, gewürztraminer and sauvignon blanc, then lagrein, slave, pinot noir and torilan: vines that are exalted in their essence if they are worked on traditional labels and become names - high-gloss, if interpreted in the "label-selections": Terlaner, Winkl, Kreuth, Vorberg, Gries, Siebeneich, Siemegg, Monticol, Quarz, Nova Domus, Lunar, Porphyr. In a nutshell, names that over the years have gained, for good reason, prestige and international reputation, transform the same winery in Terlano into a true institution not only of the high Aesine wine, but of the entire Italian wine landscape.

Color: bright straw yellow
Bouquet: stimulating and fruity, with notes reminiscent of Williams pear, lily and white melon, accompanied by floral aromas that make you think of a freshly mowed flowering meadow.
Taste: the refined balance of the aromas of black tea, the nuances of melon and ripe grapefruit, make this Pinot Grigio a pleasantly full and soft wine.
