The Girlan 2014 Alto Adige Pinot Bianco Plattenriegl does a great job in a challenging vintage. Like past editions born in more fortunate growing seasons, this wine boasts an impressive level of varietal purity. The bouquet opens to tonic and defined aromas of pear, cantaloupe melon and grapefruit. Plattenriegl feels solid in the mouth and boasts good staying power.

The 2012 Alto Adige Pinot Bianco Plattenriegl is a stunning interpretation of the grape with smooth, silky intensity enhanced by delicate aromas of white peach, honeydew melon, white lilies and lemon blossom. The wine presents a beautiful floral side that is matched by an equally intense fruity component. The mouthfeel is exceptionally smooth and taut.
