Terlano Pinot Bianco Vorberg Riserva Alto Adige 2002

Stephanie chose this wine, and I'm not sure what logic she used in doing so (nor is she, for that matter), but it showed very well. We had take-out sushi, and the wine's open character complimented the entire array of fish and appetizers. Although it's label noted that it had spent a year in oak, the wood on aroma didn't overpower the wine and added a layer of depth missing from many pinot blancs. I noticed a hint of stone fruits on the palate, and Stephanie detected a note of dandelion.
