Cantina Kurtatsch "Sonntaler" Vernatsch Alte Reben Schiava 2021 DOC
(Sudtirol-Alto Adige, Italy)

About The Wine:

Schiava SONNTALER unites our oldest vineyards, where the vines are between 60 and 90 years old. Old vines produce inherently lower and therefore higher quality yields. Traditionally, SONNTALER (means the classic one) is an assemblage of different Schiava varieties with a large share of Schiava grigia.                                                                          Ideal terroir and traditional ageing in large Slavonian wooden barrels result in a wine with complex aromas of raspberries, wild strawberries, cherries and redcurrants. It's elegant, lean body shows pleasant grip on the palate. Fine-grained tannins give the smooth fruitiness typical for the variety a long, hearty finish.

Vinification: Temperature controlled fermentation of the must in stainless steel tanks, malolactic fermentation and ageing in large oak barrels
