Meran "Tyrol" Alto Adige Weissburgunder 2021

Cantina Meran is a cooperative winery located in the stunning region of South Tyrol (Alto Adige), where alpine freshness meets Mediterranean sunshine. This northern Italian region is renowned for its refined white wines, offering pure fruit, vibrant acidity, and a distinct minerality. Weissburgunder – or Pinot Blanc – thrives in these conditions, and the "Tyrol" 2021 is a characterful example: clean, elegant, and with a subtle mountain soul.

Tasting Note

Nose

The nose opens with fresh aromas of green apple, white peach, and blossom. In the background, hints of citrus zest, wet stone, and a touch of almond emerge.

Palate

On the palate, the wine is crisp and energetic, with a beautiful tension between juicy fruit and refreshing acidity. Flavors of pear, lime, wildflowers, and a touch of salty minerality give a lively and precise impression.

Finish

The finish is clean, fresh, and persistent, with a subtle spiciness and a light almond bitterness at the end. A wine that is both thirst-quenching and highly food-friendly.

Cantina Meran

Cantina Meran is a modern cooperative made up of around 360 small growers, located in and around the town of Merano. The vineyards range in altitude from 300 to over 800 meters, creating dramatic day-night temperature swings—ideal for aromatic intensity and crisp acidity. The "Tyrol" line represents a selection of the best vineyard sites, with strict selection in the vineyard and careful vinification in the cellar. The Weissburgunder 2021 perfectly showcases what makes Alto Adige so special: precision, elegance, and purity. It’s a wine that shines both on the terrace and at the table.
