Sauvignon Alto Adige DOC
Calcareous soils with a sand component on southeast- and southwest-facing vineyards serve as the foundation to giving this wine its singular acidity and texture. These conditions allow for optimal ripening, balancing freshness and complexity. The wine’s maturation on fine lees in steel tanks enhances its aromatic intensity and finesse, setting it apart from other Sauvignon Blancs. A continued exploration of Alto Adige's increidble landscape and climate.

"Chive blossom and white pepper hints lace flavors of juicy green melon, pink grapefruit pith, and minerally salt and stone. This white is lithe, with a light, juicy plumpness on the palate. Zesty finish. Drink now through 2030. 3,400 cases made."
