Pinot Grigio Alto Adige DOC Punggl: elegance and depth from Nals Margreid

Pinot Grigio 2022 Alto Adige DOC Punggl Nals Margreid is a well-balanced Italian white wine, capable of combining aromatic immediacy with a pleasant sensation of depth on the palate. Crafted by Nals Margreid, it interprets Pinot Grigio with a refined, territorial, and convincing style, ideal for those seeking a South Tyrolean white wine with a clear identity and satisfying drinkability.

Territory and wine style

This wine is born in the Alto Adige DOC, in an area suited for the production of fresh, savory, and precise whites. The Punggl hill, south of Magrè, is situated between 220 and 250 meters in altitude and is distinguished by a stratified soil of gray clayey sand with a significant clay content. The Mediterranean climate, tempered by the Ora that comes from Lake Garda, contributes to regular ripening and an elegant aromatic profile. Manual harvesting, fermentation in 30 hl wooden barrels, and 8 months of maturation on fine lees outline a more structured style compared to an essential Pinot Grigio, without sacrificing freshness and finesse.

Tasting notes

On the nose, it expresses a subtle yet recognizable bouquet, with hints of apricot puree, lychee, and a delicate note of thyme on the finish. On the palate, it is full, deep, and well-supported by a beautiful acidic backbone, while the savoriness provides momentum and definition. The sip is harmonious, clean, with a measured structure that accompanies a pleasantly persistent finish.
