Description
The name Manincor means as much as 'hand on heart' and that is exactly how count and countess (contessa) Michael and Sophie Goëss-Enzenberg work at this special winery. The couple is avid supporter of biodynamics and pays particular attention to the work in the vineyards. They also work extremely conscientiously in the cellar. And you can taste that in their impressive, flawless wines.

Take this beautiful Réserve della Contessa, an original blend of weissburgunder, chardonnay and sauvignon blanc. Two-thirds of the grapes are harvested in the warmer Lieben Aich vineyard in Terlan, characterized by a sandy soil. A third is picked in the cooler Campan vineyard in Kaltern, where the soil consists of a mix of loam and lime.

This combination of grapes from different microclimates and terroirs ensures stratification and a beautiful balance between freshness and ripeness in the final wine. Once picked, the grapes ferment with grape yeasts in oak barrels. The wine then matures for another nine months in contact with the precipitated yeast residues for extra filling and depth in taste.

It results in a beautiful pure white wine with notes of ripe apple, peach and a touch of green herbs. The taste is both juicy and refreshing and mild and rich, which makes it particularly suitable for the table. For example, combine it with poached fish, dishes with white meat, or creamy, soft cheeses. Enjoy standing!
