Müller Thurgau originated from a cross between Riesling and Madeleine Royale and is named after its breeder, Prof. Hermann Müller, who came from Thurgau (Switzerland)<br />and carried out the extremely successful cross at the end of the 19th century in Geisenheim (Germany). In the Eisack Valley, this variety thrives mainly at higher altitudes<br />on warm sloping terraces with a very fine soil structure. The climate, which becomes harsher as the altitude increases, and above all the warm days and cool nights during<br />the ripening period, give Müller Thurgau the freshness and variety of aromas that make it so sought-after.<br /><br />Vintage 2023<br />Variety Müller Thurgau<br />Altitude 550 - 970 m<br />Orientation south east<br />Slope 55%<br />Yield per hectare 70 hl<br />Training system guyot<br />Period of harvest mid september<br />Soil Stony, lean, skeleton-rich alluvial soils containing diorite and quartz phyllite<br />Vinification Delicate processing and crushing, controlled temperature fermentation and ageing on fine lees in stainless steel tanks, no malolactic fermentation<br />Characteristic<br />Color from greenish to straw yellow<br />Nose intense, characteristic with light muscat and elder flower scents<br />Taste fresh and spiced, marked character, slightly aromatic and with a full and pleasant body<br />Ageing capacity 5 years<br />Pairing<br />recommendations<br />ligth appetizers, baked or grilled shellfish, velvety soups, light egg-based dishes, excellent as an aperitif<br />Serving temperature 8° C - 10°C<br /><br />Analytical data<br />Alcohol 12,5 % vol.<br />Residual sugar 2,2 g/l<br />total acidity 6 g/l<br /><br />Recycling Info:<br /><br />Check the regulations of your municipality<br />Bottle GL 71 - glass - waste glass collection<br />Closure FOR 51 - cork - sep. collection for organic waste<br />Capsule C/ALU 90 - aluminium - aluminium and metal collection<br />

VINTAGE 2022<br />An excellent vintage 2022 is awaiting you! As a result of the warm, stable summer, grapes of the very best health and with balanced values have reached our cellar. The<br />2022 wine year began with a warm spring, which led to an early start of flowering. The succeeding summer was consistently dry and warm-to-hot by the midsummer. The<br />drought did not cause any problems, not at least thanks to our irrigation systems and smart technology. The warm summer months have resulted in extraordinarily healthy<br />grapes of very good quality and maturity. The acidity values were somewhat lower due to the vintage, but well balanced and were supported by targeted foliage work during<br />the summer months, and a slightly earlier harvest. The first grapes were harvested at the end of August - as always entirely by hand. Overall, the wines show complexity,<br />great structure and very good fruit.<br /><br />VINIFICATION<br />Very carefully selected, fully ripe grapes get selected, picked in two harvests. Before pressing, the crushed berries are cold macerated for 6 hours, after which the juice is<br />clarified by refrigeration and natural sedimentation. Fermentation is activated using selected yeasts and the temperature is controlled at 18°C. The young wine remains on<br />its lees for several months.<br /><br />Variety: 100% Gewürztraminer<br />Alcohol: 14,00% Vol<br />

Description: very intense fruity notes reminiscent of elder, acacia flowers and sage; combined with fine wood aromas; a wine with pithy acidity and a persistent finish.<br />Ageing potential: 6-10 years.<br />Recommended food: Ideal accompaniment to herb and fish dishes. Spicy white meat dishes and fresh cheese.<br />Serving temperature: 12 - 14° C.<br />Grape variety: Sauvignon blanc.<br />Sites: The vineyards are located on a rather dry site with optimal sun exposure and a sandy, gravelly moraine soil.<br />Vinification: After a short maceration period, the fully ripe grapes are gently pressed. Half of the must ferments in stainless steel vats while the remaining part is matured in wooden barrels/barriques. Only this second part undergoes partial malolactic fermentation. After about 8 months of maturation on the yeast, the wine is blended and bottled with great care.<br />Analytical values:<br />Alcohol: 14% Vol<br />Total acidity: 5,5 g/l<br />Residual sugar: 1,0 g/l<br /><br />
