You get excellent value here. The 2016 Alto Adige Pinot Bianco Haberle is a mid-weight wine with an initial bouquet that is slightly shut down and closed. That reductive approach means that the wine takes a little while to rev up and open. Once it does, it offers stone fruit and smooth fruity ingenuity. There is elegance and beauty here with delicate mineral notes on the close. Your patience is rewarded for sure. Some 13,300 bottles were produced.
