Description

Bianco IGT 448 slm - Girlan is a fresh and aromatic white wine produced by the Girlan winery, located in Alto Adige, an Italian region known for its high-quality white wines. The name "448 above sea level" refers to the altitude of the vineyards from which the grapes come, located 448 meters above sea level, where the particular climatic conditions and the rich soil give this wine unique and distinctive characteristics.

This wine is a blend of traditional South Tyrolean varieties, which may include Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon and Gewürztraminer, expertly combining the different varietal characteristics to create a balanced, aromatic and pleasantly drinkable wine. The winemaking aims to preserve the aroma and freshness of the grapes, with fermentation and brief aging in stainless steel.

At sight, Bianco IGT 448 slm has a light straw yellow color, with brilliant reflections. On the nose it offers a fragrant and inviting bouquet, with notes of white pulp fruits, wild flowers, aromatic herbs and a light minerality, which reflects the typicality of the South Tyrolean terroir.

In the mouth, the wine is lively and fresh, with good acidity which supports its structure and enhances its fruity and floral flavours. The finish is clean and refreshing, with a pleasant aromatic persistence that invites another sip.

Ideal as an aperitif or paired with light dishes, starters, salads, fish and seafood dishes, Girlan's Bianco IGT 448 slm is a versatile wine that adapts to different occasions, perfect for those looking for a fresh white, aromatic and easy to drink.

Winery history

Founded in 1923 by an initial group of growers who chose an ancient 16th-century farmhouse in Cornaiano, the winery has evolved into a cooperative bringing together about 200 families. The ancient underground cellars and historic buildings coexist with modern facilities: harvesting and winemaking are managed with care for each individual vineyard to highlight local specificities.

Sustainability is central: targeted agronomic practices, reduced use of mineral fertilizers, energy-saving measures and the introduction of lighter bottles to reduce emissions.
