Terlaner Riserva Nova Domus 2021: a highly elegant Alto Adige white

The Terlaner Riserva 2021 Nova Domus DOC from Cantina di Terlano is a white wine of strong personality, an authoritative expression of Alto Adige and a winemaking tradition focused on precision, freshness, and aromatic depth. Born from Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc, it combines finesse and structure in a modern profile that is firmly connected to the territory.

Territory and wine style

Produced in Terlano, in Alto Adige, this white wine balances the character of mountainous areas, where temperature fluctuations and altitude contribute to preserving taste tension and aromatic clarity. The cuvée presents itself as a dry, mineral, and complex white, designed to offer depth without sacrificing drinkability. The long contact with fine lees in large oak barrels for 12 months enriches the wine's texture, enhancing its structure and natural harmony.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it shows a brilliant straw yellow with golden reflections, a sign of maturity and style. On the nose, an intense and articulated bouquet emerges, where ripe fruit, wildflowers, aromatic herbs, and a delicate almond note coexist. The sip is elegant and well-structured, with a lively freshness that supports the drink and a refined minerality that extends the finish. The texture is structured but not heavy, with a persistent and clean closure, capable of leaving a sensation of great balance and definition.
