Pinot Grigio 'Fallwind' from the San Michele Appiano winery represents an oenological excellence of Alto Adige. This white wine, obtained from Pinot Grigio grapes grown on gravelly and calcareous soils, crystallinely expresses the unique characteristics of the terroir. The vineyards of San Michele Appiano, exposed to the south and south-west, enjoy a microclimate particularly favorable to the ripening of the grapes. The gravelly and calcareous soils give the wine a marked minerality, while the temperature range between day and night favors the accumulation of fresh and intense aromas. Pinot Grigio, an international grape variety of French origin, finds an ideal habitat in Alto Adige, expressing an elegant and refined character. The vinification of Pinot Grigio 'Fallwind' is carried out with great care and attention. After manual harvesting, the grapes are softly pressed and the must ferments at a controlled temperature in steel. This choice allows to preserve the freshness and fragrance of the fruit. Subsequently, the wine is refined in steel for a few months, before being bottled.

To the eye, Pinot Grigio 'Fallwind' presents itself with a bright straw yellow color, with greenish reflections. On the nose, the bouquet is broad and complex, with notes of white-fleshed fruit such as pear and apple, enriched by delicate floral nuances and hints of aromatic herbs. On the palate, the wine is characterized by a good structure, a lively acidity and a long and persistent finish. The minerality, typical of Alto Adige wines, is evident and gives the wine a great freshness and flavor. Pinot Grigio 'Fallwind' is an extremely versatile wine, which pairs perfectly with a wide range of dishes. It is ideal to accompany fish appetizers, first courses based on fish or shellfish, white meats and fresh cheeses. Its minerality also makes it an excellent companion for vegetarian dishes.
