Morrone 2023

Here is another carefully made expression of this locally appreciated white grape. The Alois 2023 Pallagrello Bianco Morrone is partially fermented in oak (about one-third of the total, with the rest going into stainless steel). This mid-weight expression shows opulent tones of orchard fruit, pear and Golden Delicious apple. Fruit comes from a site measuring just over two hectares with limestone soils, which make a good match to this native grape. This is a production of 3,000 bottles and 200 magnums to be released in 2026.
