Product Notes

Produced in Italy's North-East region, Franz Haas Lepus Pinot Bianco is an elegant wine characterised by its delicate balance. A careful blend of intensity and crispness, it unveils notes of fresh apple, pear, and fine floral undertones. On the palate, it's beautifully structured, revealing a minerality that's influenced by the vineyard's stony, high-altitude terrain. Refreshing acidity complements a rich complexity, leading to a long, pleasing finish. An excellent accompaniment to light seafood dishes, it's a testament to the winemaking excellence of the Franz Haas family. A bottle of Lepus Pinot Bianco is a journey of northern Italian refinement.

Tasting Notes

This wine is straw yellow in colour. Its fruity, spicy aromas are reminiscent of ripe apples, field flowers and fresh bread crust. Strong yet elegant in structure, this Pinot Bianco has well-balanced acidity and is framed by a sweet, round richness and great length.

About the Winery

Franz Haas

Franz Haas, the current proprietor, is the embodiment of dedication and a true pursuer of quality. He is an enthusiast for innovation, constantly pushing the boundaries of viticulture and winemaking. However, despite his modernist tendencies, Franz also respects tradition and the legacy left by his forbearers. They have instilled in him a deep love for the native varieties such as Pinot Nero and Moscato Giallo, which he passionately cultivates.

The careful blend of tradition and innovation results in a line of unique, characterful wines. Each bottle offers a harmonious marriage of robust flavour, subtle complexity, and profound depth. Whether it’s the crisp, citrusy notes of their premium Pinot Grigio or the rich, fruity expressions of their Pinot Nero, you will find that every sip tells a story of the vineyard’s terroir and the winemaker’s hand. Franz’s vision is to produce wines that are the true expression of the people and the land from which they come from.

Another unique aspect of the Franz Haas Winery is their environmental commitments. They are an environmentally conscious winery and believe in preserving their natural resources. Not only do they limit their usage of irrigation, but they also follow the principles of organic viticulture, shunning synthetic pesticides and artificial fertilisers in favour of more ecologically sustainable practices.

In conclusion Franz Haas Winery signifies a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity- honouring the history of vine cultivation, while constantly exploring new winemaking techniques. It is truly an Italian treasure that deserves recognition for its craftmanship and integrity in every bottling.
