Wine Spectator Review:
A pleasant young white, with sliced pear and apple character and clean mineral notes. Medium-bodied, balanced and fruity, with a tangy finish. Stylish. Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and Sauvignon. Drink now. 12,000 cases made.

Parker Review:
The estates 2008 Terlaner Classico, a blend of Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and Sauvignon, is one of the more complete wines in this line-up, as the whole is clearly greater than the sum of its parts. This is another bottling that reveals impressive harmony in its expressive bouquet and generous, inviting fruit. Anticipated maturity 2009-2011. Cantina di Terlano makes a wide range of wines that rarely disappoint. These entry-level bottlings offer tons of varietal and regional character for the money.
