Founded in 1848 and widely regarded as a benchmark producer in Alto Adige, Tiefenbrunner continues to set the standard with fresh, elegant wines like the Merus Pinot Blanc DOC. Sourced from chalk-gravel soils in Cortaccia and sandy alluvial soils in Magrè, this luminous pale yellow wine undergoes a cool fermentation in concrete vats, followed by four months on fine lees for added texture. It opens with floral aromas, green apple, lemon-lime and subtle tropical fruit, leading to a creamy yet mineral palate lifted by vibrant acidity. Balanced and harmonious, it’s perfect as an aperitif or alongside light salads, fish dishes or spring vegetables.
