Acclaim
“From a screw-cap bottle, the Tiefenbrunner 2021 Alto Adige Weissburgunder Pinot Blanc Anna has an oaked and open-knit quality with oxidative aromas of dried peach, smoke, kerosene and flint over a round, medium-weight mouthfeel. The wine ends on a dry note with good acidity. I would suggest a near-term drinking window.” — Wine Advocate, Apr 2024
