Tasting notes
The 2012 Terlaner Riserva Nova Domus is another gorgeous, super-expressive white from Terlano. Here the flavors are bold and incisive. Next to the Terlaner I (Primo) Grande Cuvée, the Nova Domus is much more forward and fruit-driven, with fewer shades of minerality but more overall immediacy. Apricot pit, peach, smoke and lightly honeyed notes meld into the supple, inviting finish.

A selection of 60% Pinot Bianco, 30% Chardonnay, 10% Sauvignon Blanc fermented and aged in large oak. Very fragrant and obviously sub alpine in terms of freshness but with real substance and structure. Masses of fruit and lift. Nothing heavy about this but surely the potential to develop further. The Sauvignon is very much in the background. (JR)
