After some time in the bottle, notes of honey and lime blossom develop. On the palate, it is fresh and medium bodied with great finesse and elegance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe grapes for this wine were grown in hillside vineyards in Alto Adige and Trentino. The soils in Alto Adige are very rich and deep with a good content of clay and dolomitic limestone originated from the erosion of the mountains above. In 2020, Franz Haas took a long lease on some Pinot Grigio vineyards in Trentino. As many of his vineyards in the Alto Adige have moved to a higher altitude (750-900 meters above sea level) to extend the growing season and give his wines greater aromatic complexity, Franz felt he needed a more weight and structure in the wine, something he has provided by including the Trentino grapes in the blend. The Trentino soils are characterised by a higher rock content and limestone and the vineyards are lower lying (300 meters above sea level). The vines from both Alto Adige and Trentino are 15 years old and Guyot trained. Yields are 60 hectolitres per hectare. Vineyards exposure ranges from south to southwest.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Haas family has been growing grapes in Montagna in the province of Bolzano for generations. However, it was only with Franz, who died prematurely in 2022, that they began to produce and bottle quality wines. Franz studied at Geisenheim in Germany before working as a broker of Italian wines in the German market. After several years, he took over the running of the family business.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.franz-haas.it\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57079568990585,"sku":"10219225","price":15.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/FranzHaasDolomitiPinotGrigio_bda22e6a-f250-4751-976e-03438ff69971.jpg?v=1700641058","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/franz-haas-dolomiti-pinot-grigio-2025","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
