Curiosity

The Koran forbids any consumption of wine, only in paradise one dreams of it: "Resting on soft divans they look around them; full of joy they drink pure, well-sealed wine, the sentence of which is sheer musk;... a wine mixed with water from the spring Tasnim, where the lucky ones refresh themselves... and the black-eyed Huris, chaste as hidden pearls, are waiting for you as a reward for your deeds".

Food Pairing

Ideal with asparagus dishes, onion soup, grilled and fried fish, snails or simply as an aperitif!

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)
