In many respects 2021 was a demanding and challenging wine growing year. The winter months were mainly sunny but very cold. In spring the temperature was slow to rise, and that delayed the vegetative development of the vines. This was only partly compensated by the warm and sunny start to the summer, while the weather in July and August was very varied. The grape harvest accordingly began relatively late, on September 9. The wet September was an organizational problem for our wine growers, but ultimately a very good harvest was completed on October 26.

– bright golden yellow with hints of green
– multifaceted bouquet with crisp fruit notes and herby nuaces; fresh yellow apple, honeydew melon, dried camomile and fine graphite notes
– harmonious on the palate with salty finish, creamy texture and crispy acidity; powerful and elegant finish

This wine pairs well with fish soup, herbs risotto, fried fish but also with grilled poultry.

Extremely prolonged pressing of the grapes in their entirety, spontaneous fermentation of the unfiltered juice in the large casks (500 l), 10 months maturing in the wood on fine lees with bâtonnage.

The vineyards lie in St. Nikolaus at 550-600 m a.s.l. facing East; the soil is mostly limestone with glacial fans and Dolomite‘rock slabs. The terrain is loose and well aerated and it ranges from neutral to alkaline.
