2016 Cantina Terlano Pinot Bianco Riserva Vorberg

Checking in on the 2016 vintage... it's been almost a year since my last bottle.... I'm convinced that Alto Adige Pinot Bianco may be one of the most versatile white wines in the world.... thanks to @"Ian D'Agata" 
for introducing me to this beautiful rendition of the varietal in his 2017 article on Vinous...

Mountain honeysuckle and marzipan on the nose....
Palate of lemon oil with peach pit and lychee... a  finish that begs for another sip...pleasing viscosity, yet with an underlying minerality to provide structure. 

Paired with grilled lobster tails and sea bass, risotto, cherry tomato-Vidalia onion-balsamic salad, and watermelon-mango salad... 

....wrapped up at the close of the evening with Raclette, caramelized Walnuts and sweet grapes...
