Wine Enthusiast
This vintage showcases a broad and lush profile, with a delightful interplay of rich, creamy citrus fruits and vibrant tartness. The nose is inviting, offering a harmonious blend of ripe citrus notes, complemented by fresh mint and basil accents. On the palate, the wine's ample texture is balanced by a lively acidity, creating a delightful tension that keeps the flavors focused and energetic. — Jeff Porter

Wine Advocate
This is a gorgeous wine, and you can't beat that low price. The Cantina Terlano 2022 Alto Adige Weissburgunder Pinot Bianco Tradition (with 200,000 bottles made) offers a delicate medley of pear, quince, guava, white currant and grilled lemon. It shows fresh acidity without appearing unripe. It's an entry-level wine with good complexity and a multidimensional character. (ML)

Vinous
The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Quarz is youthfully coy, opening with an airy bouquet that mixes crushed rocks with dried flowers, hints of petrol and nectarines. This is pure pleasure on the palate, soft and round, with juicy acidity and ripe citrus-tinged orchard fruits that swirl as salty mineral tones penetrate deeply. The 2022 finishes with outstanding length and tension, leaving hints of sour melon and a tart lemon rind tinge. The 2022 is intense and built for the cellar. (EG)
