The Pinot Grigio Alto Adige DOC produced by the Cantina Kaltern is a distinguished example of white wine that reflects the enological excellence of northern Italy. This wine originates from the idyllic vineyards of Alto Adige, a region widely recognized for its ideal climate that allows for perfect grape maturation.

Kaltern’s Pinot Grigio stands out for its clear, almost crystalline color, with reflections ranging from green to copper. On the nose, the bouquet is rich and elegant, with fruity notes of pear and green apple, accompanied by hints of white flowers and a subtle touch of hazelnut that enriches the aroma.

On the palate, freshness is the main feature, balanced by a pleasant acidity that provides a long-lasting taste. Its structure is delicate yet well-defined, making it versatile for culinary pairings. This Pinot Grigio pairs superbly with light appetizers, fish or seafood dishes, and is sublime with herb risotto.

Produced with carefully selected grapes and crafted using techniques that honor the winemaking traditions of the area, each bottle of Pinot Grigio Alto Adige DOC from Cantina Kaltern is a true tribute to its land of origin. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel containers to preserve the natural aromas and freshness of the grape variety, followed by a brief period of maturation on fine lees, adding complexity to the wine.

A wine that will captivate with its elegance and freshness, ideal for those who appreciate high-quality alpine whites.
