94 Points, James Suckling
“An ambitious wine that shines with an intense mix of blood-orange and white-peach aromas with a flowery touch. Medium-bodied. On the palate, it shows vibrancy and weight with a long, savory and toasted finish.”
Elena Walch Pinot Bianco Kristallberg Alto Adige 2023
94 Points, James Suckling
The crisp, electrifying white wines of Elena Walch are a must-have in my cellar every year, especially as the weather starts to get really nice. But the ‘Kirstallberg’ single-vineyard bottling is an elevated experience that I’d argue is one of the most elegant we’ll have all year. This is exactly the kind of sharp, crisp wine you’re looking for to pair with food—super minerally and fresh with stone fruit and Asian pear present to balance the steely acid base. The balance here is impeccable, and the wine is somehow both weighty from partial barrel fermentation yet remarkably light on its feet. Such an electric, mouthwatering white.
