The Pinot Blanc DOP Castel Juval 2023 from Unterortl is a masterfully crafted white wine that captures the essence of South Tyrolean winemaking tradition. Its color radiates a clear, light straw yellow, which shimmers in the glass and whose clarity underlines the purity of the wine. The nose is pampered with a delicate scent of green apples, pears and a touch of freshly cut grass, giving it a fresh and inviting aroma. On the palate, Pinot Blanc unfolds in all its splendor with a structured acidity, paired with nuances of citrus fruits and a subtle minerality that results in a long-lasting, clean finish.
Pinot Blanc, also known as Pinot Bianco, is a grape variety known for its ability to produce fine, balanced wines that reflect the terroir of its origin. The Unterortl winery, located on the steep slopes of the Juval hill, offers ideal conditions for this variety. The alpine climate of this area, characterized by warm days and cool nights, as well as the mineral-rich clay soils contribute to the characteristic profile of this Pinot Blanc.
The vegetation around the winery is characterized by alpine flora, which gives the wine its unique flavor.
Unterortl, led by visionary Reinhold Messner and tenants Gisela & Martin Aurich, uses natural diversity and unique microclimate to create wines that embody both the tradition and innovation of South Tyrolean viticulture.
