Curiosity

The Eisack river is the main tributary of the Etsch (Adige) and its river valley is called the Eisacktal. It rises at the Brenner and runs into the Etsch at Bozen. Ancient authors called the river "Isarcus" or "Isargus". Only Strabo called it "Atagis" instead of Isarcus.

Food Pairing

Ideal pairings include shrimp, lobster, liver pâté, soft cheeses, desserts, or just as an aperitif. Also excellent with Sushi!

Vintage 2021

A late harvest and lovely, stable weather at the crush characterized Alto Adige’s 2021 vintage. Thus the grapes could be left to ripen ideally, and thanks to the high temperature differentials between day and night, a great deal of aroma could form. The result is an extraordinary 2021 white wine vintage. (Südtirol Wein)
