Nova Domus 2019 TERLAN 0,75 l
Nova Domus<br />Riserva<br />2016<br /><br />'The castle ruins, first mentioned in 1206, tower majestically above the entrance to the village of Terlan. Our noble cuvèe of Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc is<br />just as powerful and complex. This Terlaner Cuvée Riserva brings out all the advantages of the growing region in a strong character and shows itself as a powerful, multi-<br />faceted, mineral wine that can only fully develop its potential after many years of bottle ageing.'<br />Rudi Kofler<br /><br />Wine<br />Region of Origin: South Tyrol - Italy<br />DOC Area: South Tyrol Terlaner<br />Variety: 60%Wißburgunder,30%Chardonnay,10%Sauvignon Blanc<br />Orientation: South - Southwest<br />Altitude: Pinot Blanc 500 - 600 m<br />Chardonnay 300 - 350 m<br />Sauvignon Blanc 300 - 350 m<br />Vinification<br />Harvest and grape selection by hand; gentle whole bunch pressing and clarification of the must by natural sedimentation of the lees; slow fermentation at controlled<br />temperature in large oak barrels (30 hl); partial malolactic fermentation (only the varieties Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay); ageing for 12 months on the fine lees in large<br />wooden barrels and presentation as 'Riserva' after a total of 2 years of maturity.<br /><br />Prices: Falstaff 2019: 95; James Suckling 2019: 94; Guida essenziale ai Vini d'italia 2020: 94; Bibenda 2020: 5 grapes; Wine Spectator: 91;<br /><br />Technical data<br />Alcohol content: 14.0 % vol<br />Residual sugar: 1,1 g/l<br />Total acidity: 6,1 g/l<br /><br />Serving temperature: 12 - 14 °C<br />Recommended food<br /><br />Harmonises very well with caviar but also goes well with grilled salmon or roasted tuna; also with a Fiorentina, Saltimbocca alla romana or a braised veal steak; also with a<br />Parmigiana with aubergines and truffle fonduta.<br /><br />Character<br />Colour: intense, sparkling yellow-green<br />Nose: The aromatic structure of this cuvée presents itself with a multitude of facets. A hint of herbs and spices, such as anise, mint and sage, but also aromatic fruit<br />nuances, especially the scent of apricots, tangerines, honeydew melon, passion fruit and passion fruit, characterise the Terlaner. The overall impression is underlined by<br />mineral components.<br />Taste: Complex and delicate, the Nova Domus sparkles on the palate, where the powerful structure together with its mineral-salty tension creates an interesting symbiosis<br />and thus lingers for a very long time.<br />
