Description

While the originally French grape variety Sauvignon Blanc may have been present in Alto Adige for about a century, Sauvignon was introduced to Valle Isarco (Eisacktal) much more recently. Yet this magnificent example from the Eiasacktal cooperative tastes as if the growers and winemaker Hannes Munter have decades of experience with this grape. What a particularly fine interpretation of Sauvignon!

The grapes are hand-picked in steep, high-altitude vineyards (450-750 meters) with a southeast exposure. Thanks to the warm days and cool nights, the grapes can ripen beautifully without losing their fresh and aromatic character.

Once in the cellar, the grapes are gently pressed, followed by fermentation and aging on the lees in stainless steel tanks. The result is a magnificent Sauvignon Blanc with a pronounced aroma of citrus fruit, grass, and green herbs, and a lively, fresh yet full and ripe taste. A stylish aperitif, but certainly also a fine accompaniment to a meal.
