James Suckling 95 Points | Lots of fresh flowers, limes, sliced apples and honeysuckle on the nose with candied lemon and heather notes. Full-bodied with a light phenolic tension, rich with lots of citrus peel and minerals in the finish. Concentration with freshness. Pinot bianco, chardonnay and sauvignon blanc. Drink or hold.

A blend of Terlano's three most traditional white varieties, namely Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and Sauvignon, this original cuvée, which was one of the first wines produced when the winery was founded, is an extremely layered and complex wine. Pinot Bianco, as the main variety used in the cuvée, provides the freshness and a good acid structure, while Chardonnay delivers a pleasing warmth and mellowness, and Sauvignon Blanc adds the fine aromatic character.

Green apple and white peach combine with fine nuances of lemon balm and mint to create the typical aromas of the classic Terlano. Pronounced notes of peach on the palate, lending the wine its lively character. The multifaceted, well structured flavor derives from an interplay of freshness and minerality and also has a wonderfully long, persistent finish.

With 240,000 bottles released, you should have no problem finding this fresh, mid-weight wine for your next patio party. Drinking 2023 - 2027. - Robert Parker Wine Advocate 92

James Suckling writes: Aromas of cooked apples, lemongrass, tarragon, and limes with hints of kiwi. Medium body. Creamy texture with dried lemons and pear pie. Flinty and slate character, too. Such tension and purity. Aged 20% in large casks and partial malolatic fermentation. A blend of 60% pinot bianco, 30% chardonnay and 10% sauvignon blanc. Drink now. - James Suckling 94

Alison Napjus writes: Fresh, juicy and appealing, with hints of pink grapefruit zest and grated ginger enlivening the ripe Gala apple, elderflower and slivered almond notes. Long and minerally on the creamy finish. Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Drink now. - Wine Spectator 90

Eric Guido writes: The 2022 Terlaner Cuvée opens with a dusty floral bouquet, blending crushed stone with wildflowers and crisp green apples. This is luxuriously soft textured with ripe orchard fruits and sweet spices. The 2022 leaves a gentle tinge of minerality and the mouth watering. The 2022 finishes with medium length. - Vinous
