2025 Tiefenbrunner Merus Pinot Grigio, Alto Adige

High in the Italian Alps, the Tiefenbrunner family has been producing wines in Alto Adige since 1848, earning an outstanding reputation for elegant, mountain grown wines that express the region's remarkable freshness and purity. Today the estate combines generations of experience with sustainable vineyard practices, crafting wines that reflect the unique alpine character of this celebrated corner of northern Italy.

The Merus Pinot Grigio is sourced from hillside vineyards where cool mountain nights, abundant sunshine and mineral rich soils encourage slow ripening and vibrant natural acidity. These ideal growing conditions produce a style that is crisp, aromatic and beautifully balanced, showcasing why Alto Adige is regarded as one of Italy's finest homes for Pinot Grigio.

The colour is a brilliant pale straw with shimmering green highlights. Aromas of nashi pear, white peach and lemon zest are lifted by white blossom, fresh herbs and a subtle mineral note. The palate is bright and refreshing, combining juicy orchard fruit with lively citrus, crisp acidity and a gentle saline thread. The finish is clean, dry and elegantly persistent, inviting another glass.

A perfect match for grilled calamari, seafood risotto, spaghetti alle vongole, burrata with basil and tomatoes or zucchini fritters with lemon yoghurt. Enjoy while young to appreciate its vibrant fruit, freshness and alpine charm.
