Product notes

''Gschleie'' is one of the best-known wine regions of South Tyrol. The vines are between 80 and 110 years old and grow at an altitude of 450 m, on calcareous, clayey-gravelly soils. The position and exposure of the hillside ensure optimal sunshine which gives rise to a wine with great aging potential.

Production notes

The grapes are picked by hand. Destemming and slow fermentation of musts (15-20 days) in stainless steel vats (gravity). Malolic fermentation and aging for 9 months in large wooden barrels and 6 months in the bottle.

Tasting notes

This Vernatsch is unique. It is elegant and full-bodied with tannins on black fruit such as redcurrant with a touch of spice. A wine with exceptional aging potential. Pairings with charcuterie, barbecue and tuna.
