K. Martini & Sohn is a family-run winery in Alto Adige, a region known for producing elegant and mineral-driven white wines. Established in 1979, the estate focuses on sustainable viticulture and precise winemaking, ensuring that each wine reflects the unique alpine terroir. The 2021 vintage experienced a balanced growing season, with warm days and cool nights preserving freshness while allowing the grapes to develop complexity and structure.

Pinot Bianco thrives in Alto Adige’s high-altitude vineyards, where limestone-rich soils enhance the wine’s crisp acidity and refined minerality. Fermented and aged in stainless steel, Pinot Bianco ‘Lahm’ is crafted to highlight purity, freshness, and delicate texture.

Appearance: Pale straw yellow with bright green reflections, shimmering with clarity. The wine’s brilliance suggests freshness and precision, while a light viscosity hints at a smooth yet crisp texture. As it swirls in the glass, it reveals a delicate movement, indicating its balance and elegance.

Aroma: Elegant and inviting, with aromas of green apple, pear, and white peach. Floral notes of acacia and chamomile add finesse, while a subtle mineral touch of wet stone enhances complexity. A hint of citrus zest and fresh almond emerges as the wine opens, bringing further depth to the bouquet.

Taste: Light to medium-bodied, with a beautifully balanced profile. Juicy orchard fruits lead, supported by a bright citrus backbone of lemon and grapefruit. The crisp acidity keeps the wine lively, while a fine mineral streak adds structure. A gentle creaminess from lees ageing gives it a smooth, rounded mouthfeel, adding a layer of elegance.

Finish: Clean and refreshing, with lingering citrus, green apple, and a delicate almond note. A slight saline touch enhances the mineral-driven character, leaving a crisp and elegant impression. The balance between fruit and acidity ensures a long, refined finish, with a final whisper of white flowers and a subtle nuttiness.

Food Pairing: A perfect match for seafood such as grilled prawns or lemon-infused seabass, where the wine’s acidity enhances the dish’s freshness. It also pairs beautifully with burrata and heirloom tomato salad, balancing the creamy texture. For a plant-based option, try it with a fennel and orange salad, where the wine’s citrus and mineral notes mirror the dish’s bright and aromatic profile.
