The white wine Alto Adige/Südtiroler Pinot Bianco DOC can also be seen under the name Alto Adige/Südtiroler Weissburgunder DOC, and is often underestimated because it suffers a bit from the popularity of the Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay wines.

The thing is, Alto Adige/Südtiroler Pinot Bianco DOC (or Weissburgunder) can make quite an impression as it ages more than it does as a young wine. The reason is the grape composition, the basic grape, the Pinot Bianco (85-100%), with very specific ability of retaining its youthful freshness. There can be added local white grapes (0-15%).
