<br /><br />The Brenntal vineyard is located in the north of the village of Kurtatsch and is one of the warmest sites (up to 40° C) in South Tyrol. The vines of the steep slope with intense<br />sunlight stand on red, sandy loam soil.<br /><br />In the evening, the fleshy grapes are cooled by refreshing fall winds.

The fruit on the palate is joined by a dense, velvety tannin. The delicate acidity<br />gives the wine its precise balance with an impressively long finish.<br /><br />Merlot BRENNTAL: the unique one.<br />Vinification: Temperature-controlled fermentation in red wine tanks, ageing in French barriques for 15 months.

Südtirol Lagrein Riserva...
Lagrein, genetically related to Syrah, is the oldest autochthonous grape variety in South Tyrol. In the hot, deep vineyards in the south of South Tyrol, the heat-loving Lagrein<br />finds its suitable habitat.<br />The FRAUENHÜGEL has a seductive fruitiness of wild berries, elderberries, black cherries and cocoa beans. The wine is enriched with balsamic tannins during ageing in<br />barrique barrels. The noble roasted aromas and the vital acidity are harmoniously combined with the powerful fruit body. The clayey soil is responsible for its typical terroir<br />characteristics, which lend the fruity finish a piquant spiciness (liquorice) and its individual earthy note.<br />FRAUENHÜGEL: the powerful one.<br /><br />Grape variety: Lagrein<br />Vinification: Temperature-controlled fermentation in red wine tanks and ageing in French barriques for 12 months. Barrique barrels for 12 months, followed by ageing in large<br />oak barrels.<br /><br />Alcohol: 13,5 % Vol.<br />Total acidity: 5.4 g/l<br />Residual sugar: 1,8 g/l<br />Yield per hectare: 50 hl<br />Optimal drinking maturity: 3-10 years<br />

Magnum Lupicaia 2018...
<br /><br />Denomination: I.G.T. Rosso Toscana (Lupicaia)<br />Producer: Gian Annibale Rossi di Medelana,Vittorio Piozzo di<br />Rosignano Rossi di Medelana<br />First vintage: 1993<br />Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot<br />Analytical data: Alcohol degree: 14.50%.<br />Soil type: The soils are rich in iron minerals with the presence of stones and fossils. Facing the Mediterranean Sea, they benefit from a unique reflection of the sun, a<br />moderate breeze from the coast and the abundance of sunlight promotes unique ripening.<br /><br />Training system: Spurred Cordon<br />Planting density: 3,600 vines/Ha for old vineyards; 5,600 vines/Ha for new vineyards<br /><br />Climatic trend: 2016 was certainly one of the most regular vintages of the last decade. Rainfall met the vines' needs punctually: abundant in March, regular in May and June,<br />important at the end of July and, finally, a warm and sunny August and mid-September. Temperatures were optimal: a mild end to the winter that had caused concern was<br />then regularised by a tenably cool spring that slowed down the development of the bunches, which then benefited from the hot but not torrid summer, with significant<br />temperature swings. Cluster growth was regular and optimal, production was good and ripening was perfect.<br /><br />Harvest period: Harvesting was strictly by hand and took place for the Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from mid-September. After an initial selection in the<br />vineyard at the time of manual harvesting, the Lupicaia grapes are carefully selected a second time on arrival at the winery on the sorting table.<br /><br />Winemaking notes: After manual selection on the sorting table, the grapes are gently destemmed and pressed, taking care not to break the skin of the berries. Meticulous<br />alcoholic fermentation takes place in our stainless steel open-cap fermenters at a controlled temperature with maceration of the grapes for about 20 days. Daily dèlestages<br />allowed the perfect extraction of the bouquet<br />aromas and the right tannic balance, with an important structure that will allow for long ageing.<br /><br />Ageing: Ageing takes place in new French oak tonneaux for a period of about 22 months followed by further ageing in bottles before release.<br />

LOAM Cabernet-Merlot...
A rarity in the Alpine region are sites with a microclimate in which even red late varieties reach the stage of full ripeness. Loam Cabernet-Merlot owes its exceptional<br />character to the weather-protected location and the special nature and heat storage capacity of the soils of its vineyards.<br /><br />Vintage description: the winter ended with abundant snow in the mountains. Warmer temperatures in March and April caused an early and rather uneven budding in the well-<br />supplied soils. A cool May then delayed the flowering. In humid and hot June, a high fungal disease pressure developed, which could be contained through sensitivity and a<br />lot of careful manual work. The rest of the summer was largely dry and was only interrupted by short, heavy thunderstorms. Two hot spells had practically no negative<br />effects. A significant drop in the lowest temperatures began in mid-August. High temperature differences between day and night characterised the weather throughout the<br />harvest. The harvest took place about 14 days later than in the previous year. The white wines of the 2019 vintage show an impressive freshness, Gewürztraminer are<br />characterised by particular elegance. The red wines present a lot of fruit and a lively tannin structure.<br /><br />Grape variety: Cabernet Sauvignon (40%), Cabernet Franc (25%), Merlot (35%).<br />Yield: 45 hl/hectare<br />Altitude: 250 - 350 m<br />Soil: Clay with calcareous content<br />Age of vines: 15 - 25 years<br />Exposure: south-east 90 %, south 10<br />Climate: extreme interplay between sunny days dominated by the Mediterranean climate and night hours dominated by cold downdrafts from the surrounding mountains<br /><br />Serving temperature 16-18° C<br />Residual sugar 0.7 g/l<br />Total acidity 5,4 g/l<br />Alcohol 14 % vol<br />
