Terlano Pinot Bianco Riserva Vorberg 2008 (Magnum)

Bottle Size: 150cl

Region: Italy: Piedmont

Colour: White

Style: Still

Grape Variety: Pinot Bianco

Pale straw-yellow with a green tinge; less golden in color than the 2014 and 2011. Complex nose combines green apple, grapefruit, quince, minerals, minty herbs and chamomile. Bright, juicy and very dense, showing an extremely refined mouthfeel, with lively acidity providing noteworthy clarity and cut to the orchard fruit and white stone fruit flavors. This dense, deep, multilayered wine finishes pure and long, with penetrating freshness. This has improved immensely from when it was first released a few years ago and is by far the best bottle of 2008 Vorberg I have ever tasted. I wasn’t always this impressed with it in the past but undoubtedly it has blossomed into an excellent Pinot Bianco. January 2017 92 Points Ian D'Agata, Vinous.com
