Riff Pinot Grigio has a bright yellow straw color with green hues. Very sophisticated in the nose, fruity (apple, peach), typical of Pinot Grigio from Northeast Italy. Pronounced taste, pure, elegant and fruity (fresh grapes).
Alois Lageder's vision of winemaking is reflected in all his wines, whether it be a Pinot Grigio from one vineyard or the affordable and recognizable Riff wines. As with all his projects, quality is the main driver here too. Thanks to his background and his relationship with local winegrowers, Lageder has the first choice in the selection of vineyards that supply the grapes for the Riff wines. And the name Riff? It refers to the origin of the vineyards. Because where grapes now grow, there used to be sea. It is literally a dry sea reef, rich in limestone, which gives the wines character and taste. The fossils on the label are a nod to that.
Culinary advice: appetizers with fish or (white) meat, pies and terrines, fish, shellfish, poultry, white meat and mushrooms.
Alois Lageder Riff Pinot Grigio is a delicious Italian white wine from the Alto Adige region. This wine is made by winery Alois Lageder from Pinot Grigio grapes.
The Alois Lageder winery in Alto Adige comprises fifty hectares of the family's own vineyards, which are managed on the basis of bio-dynamic principles. Our holistic approach is reflected in our wine-growing activities, our long-standing relationships with numerous grape growers and our ambition to create awareness for an agriculture that is in tune with nature. Bio-dynamics (from the Greek bios meaning life and dinamikòs meaning movement) is a method employed for the renewal of agriculture that is based on the principles of anthroposophy, a view developed by the Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner at the beginning of the 20th century. The anthroposophical view is that a farm is an enclosed microcosm containing a variety of plants and animals. A cultural landscape, too, is a closed system involving the soil, plants and nature. Our objective as wine growers is to maintain and develop this complex ecosystem.
