Etna Bianco, Alto Adige
A beautiful, intense white wine with aromas of mango, flowers, toasted toast, and light oak. The palate begins juicy and elegant, finishing with a persistent aromatic note.
Manicor Alto Adige Terlano
With its fifty hectares of biodynamically farmed vineyards near Lake Kaltern (Lago di Caldaro), Manincor is among the very best wineries in Alto Adige, Northern Italy. This region owes its reputation primarily to its flawless, single-varietal white wines.
Manincors Eichhorn, made from Weissburgunder, Pinot Bianco in Italy, is a classic example. The Eichhorn takes its name from the eponymous vineyard where the grapes grow. The vineyard's southwest exposure ensures optimal ripeness of the grapes.
Once pressed, the wine undergoes a brief maceration on the skins to enhance its aroma and structure. After spontaneous fermentation in wooden barrels, the wine matures on the yeasts for several months, further refining its aromas and flavor.
This results in an impressive Weissburgunder, with beautifully ripe fruit, a floral and spicy character that immediately evokes an idyllic Alpine meadow, and a potential to age for several years. For optimal enjoyment, we recommend decanting the wine beforehand if you intend to enjoy it young, and serving it in Burgundy glasses.
Awards
Mention
The Wine Advocate - September 2020: 93+/100 points | Delicate and specific nuances of crushed stone, pine nut and a touch of wild sage
Description
Pinot Bianco is one of the grapes most closely identified with the dynamic Alto Adige wine scene. The oak fermented Manincor 2018 Alto Adige Terlano Pinot Bianco Eichhorn offers mid-weight appeal, with peach and Golden Delicious apple that wrap smoothly over the palate. Keeping in line with the characteristics of the grape, the bouquet is rather neutral but it does reveal delicate and specific nuances of crushed stone, pine nut and a touch of wild sage or mountain herb. It's a nice selection for a white fat sausage, or any weisswurst.

Vinous | Antonio Galloni - November 2020: 91/100 points | It's a ripe, large-scaled yet truly seductive wine
Description
The 2017 Pinot Bianco Eichhorn is rich and still showing a bit of oak influence. Displays ripe yellow apple, wet stone, undergrowth, honeyed florals, and a hint of lemon curd. It's silky and textural with an attractive inner sweetness, offset by zesty acids and salty minerals. Flavors of apricot, dried peaches, and lime zest resonate, along with a hint of butterscotch. The Eichhorn goes through spontaneous fermentation in oak barrels, followed by another four months resting on the lees. It's a ripe, large-scaled yet truly seductive wine.
