The Pinot Bianco Sanct Valentin di San Michele Appiano has been produced from 100% handpicked Pinot Bianco grapes in the territory of Appiano Monte, a hamlet of Appiano (BZ). The vineyards here, facing South and South-East, are situated on gravelly soils characterized by the presence of limestone and clay, at an altitude ranging from 450 to 600 meters above sea level. After harvest and transportation to the cellar, 50% of the must underwent alcoholic and malolactic fermentation with maceration on lees in barriques and tonneaux, while the remaining 50% was vinified in large oak barrels. After resting for approximately 12 months in the same containers, the wine was blended and further refined for 8 months in stainless steel.
