For well over 2000 years, the area of South Tyrol has been fruitful for the cultivation of quality grapes in a unique Alpine environment. Within the heart is the village of Eppan where the St. Michael Eppan winery is located and has been producing some of the region's finest wines since its humble beginnings in 1908. Since 1977 Hans Terzer has been the cellar's winemaker. He is one of the most important winemakers in Italy. In 1997 he was awarded by Gambero Rosso as one of the ten best winemakers in the world and for over 20 years he has been president of the association of the "Kellermeister" of South Tyrol. Over the years he has managed to convince members to adopt a rigorous quality-based philosophy over the years. This road has not always been easy, but with a lot of creativity, a good instinct and a lot of pride, he finally managed to make San Michele what it is today: one of the best wineries in Italy.
"Here's another terrific value from the far north of Italy. The St. Michael-Eppan 2021 Alto Adige Pinot Bianco Schulthauser is lean and crisp. It shows razor sharp aromas of lemon-lime, green apple, white peach, sage and crushed stone. Pinot Bianco tends to offer neutral aromas, but it does manage a greater sense of density and richness on the palate that comes from the natural concentration and structure of this beautiful grape. Aging takes place mostly in stainless steel, with 20% in large oak casks." The Wine Advocate, 92 Points
