Alois Lageder is one of Alto Adige’s most respected names — a producer with a long and principled commitment to organic and biodynamic farming at a time when such things were far from fashionable. Riff is their answer to a simple question: what does a thoughtfully farmed, honestly made Italian white wine taste like at an accessible price? The answer, vintage after vintage, is this.
The 2024 Pinot Grigio is sourced from certified organic vineyards in the Delle Venezie DOC — the broad, sun-drenched sweep of northeast Italy that stretches across Veneto, Friuli, and Trentino. The variety here is Pinot Grigio at its most expressive and least complicated: a grape that, in the right hands, delivers clarity, energy, and effortless drinkability without asking much in return.
In the glass: brilliant straw-yellow with a green-tinged rim. The nose is fresh and inviting — light stone fruit, white pear, and a clean varietal brightness. On the palate it is lively and precise, medium-bodied with a mouthwatering, bone-dry finish and just enough texture to hold its own at the table. Sealed with a screwcap for freshness.
