Pinot Bianco 'Hos' Niklas 2024

The Pinot Bianco "Hos" by Weingut Niklas is a South Tyrolean white wine from vineyards located near Lake Caldaro, at an altitude of 500 meters. The soils on which the vines rest, porphyry and limestone, are primarily responsible for the pronounced minerality and savoriness that characterize this great South Tyrolean white, enriched by aromas of pears and Golden apples, flint, and mixed citrus.

PINOT BIANCO 'HOS' NIKLAS 2024 DESCRIPTION

Golden, citrus notes, and mineral sensations reminiscent of flint. The sip is light and delicate, with a finish characterized by a saline and citrus freshness, with good taste persistence. A version of Pinot Bianco with a fresh and mineral cut, suitable for those who love essential and fine wines.

rich limestone, porphyry, and clay soils, create a habitat where the vine has dwelled for centuries. The Sölva family has been dedicated to the vineyard for three generations and produces wines with artisanal character, linked to tradition and the characteristics of the terroir. No chemicals are used between the rows, and the few treatments are carried out only with sulfur and copper, in full respect of the environment. The winery's philosophy is oriented towards the production of lean, fresh, and elegant wines that are an authentic expression of the wonderful alpine territory of South Tyrol.

"Hos" from Weingut Niklas is a Pinot Bianco that comes from grapes grown in the plots of Vial, Planitzing, Barleit, and Salt at 500 meters above sea level. At the end of the harvest, a short cold maceration is followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine matures for 6 months in steel before bottling. It presents a straw-yellow color. The bouquet is elegant, fresh, and refined, with aromas of white fruit, pear, and apple

When to drink
Wine good to drink now, but that can have a beautiful evolution after resting for a while in your cellar
Glass
Medium open goblet
Perfect for young and medium bodied white wines which don't require excessive oxygenation to open. The opening, slightly tighter than the body of the glass, favors the concentration of aromas towards the nose, enhancing the perception of aromas and limiting the dispersion
Longevity
You can safely let it rest in the cellar for 4-5 years
