| Wine list | Sauvignon |
A wine of great prestige and freshness. Fruit of the refined and skilful vinification of 100% pure Sauvignon Blanc grapes. Its origin is linked to classic Alto Adige, which vineyards are in excellent sun exposure. It is a rather dry area with sandy and gravelly soils of morainic origin. After a short maceration the pressing oft perfectly ripe grapes takes place. The must ferments half in steel and the rest in barriques. Only the latter part undergoes malolactic fermentation. After about 8 months of maturation on the lees, the two wines are blended and carefully bottled.
