This juicy, drink-now aromatic white is a well-judged blend of 45% Pinot Bianco with the remainder split between Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. All the fruit is grown at 448 metres (hence the name) on the mineral-rich hillside vineyards of Alto Adige's Cornaiano canton. The name not only refers to the altitude of the source vineyards but also to a local expression: ‘448’ or ‘quattro quattro otto’ is a local saying for ‘hurry up’. So, there's a bit of Tyrolean wordplay going on here!
This is so delicious—a super aromatic, juicy wine that’s perfect for drinking over the warmer months. It is a crunchy, fresh, aromatic blend for drinking any time of the day or night. Similarly weighted to a Loire or Savoie white, it's an airy, energetic wine with aromas of juicy pear, white peach and sliced apple. The palate is tangy and refreshing, then juicy and textural as it builds in the glass. The lovely grippy close is deliciously pure and mouthwateringly clean. An excellent pouring option, it doesn’t miss a beat.
