Moscato Rosa DOC 2023 375ml...

<br />South Tyrol Moscato Rosa DOC<br /><br />A rare pleasure in a small edition<br /><br />Castel Sallegg and Moscato Rosa. These two terms have long belonged together in South Tyrol. Not without reason, it was the Princes of Campofranco, ancestors of the<br />current owner Count Georg von Kuenburg, who in 1892 brought this noble grape variety with them when they moved from Sicily to Sallegg Castle in Caldaro and planted it<br />in the warmest soil on Lake Caldaro, where it thrived magnificently. Today, the rose muscatel is one of the rarest varieties in the world. The Moscato Rosa of Castel Sallegg<br />grows at the Seehof in St. Josef am See at 230 m above sea level on the traditional pergola.<br /><br />The production of this wine is very limited: Depending on the weather, Moscato Rosa may not be bottled at all in certain years. Otherwise, up to 1,000 bottles are bottled per<br />vintage.<br /><br />Tasting Notes:<br />A dessert wine whose colour is characterised by a dense raspberry red.<br />On the nose, rich aromas of roses, fine fruit components distantly reminiscent of lychee and ripe, very complex raspberry flavours, supported by an elegant spiciness in<br />the background.<br />Very opulent, repeating the aromas of the fragrance, this powerful wine type presents itself on the palate.<br />Serving temperature: 10-14°C<br />Shelf life: Up to 30 years. Moscato Rosa is Castel Sallegg's most famous wine and, as a variety, is one of the rarest in the world.<br />Food recommendation: Ideal with mature, spicy cheeses, foie gras, desserts with berry fruits (but with sugar restrained). Also perfect as a stand-alone wine in the sense of<br />a meditation wine.<br />Grape variety: 100% Moscato Rosa - Selection Kuenburg: Autochthonous variety.<br />Site: Kaltern - Seehof: 230 m above sea level. Gravel and reddish, ground Grödner sandstone. Warm, air-permeable soils with a special microclimate in the immediate<br />vicinity of Lake Kaltern.<br />Growing system: Traditional pergola<br />Yield per vine: 0.5 kg - 8 hl/ha due to natural trickling.<br />Vinification: The grapes are harvested very late with a minimum gradation of 32°KMW (160 Öchsle). This is followed by a week of maceration in stainless steel tanks.<br />Maturation: 1 year in stainless steel barrels, followed by 12 months in the bottle.<br />Alcohol: 12,5 %<br />Acidity: 7,3 g/l<br />Residual sugar: 161,4 g/l<br />

Comtess 2022 St. Valentin...

Passito Comtess<br />Sanct Valentin<br />Passito is the Italian term for wines that are made from air- and sun-dried, almost rosined grapes. This usually takes place in our vineyard, i.e. the grapes remain on the<br />vine until the end of the year. The elegant Passito Comtess delights with intense fruit, a creamy-soft body, with a long finish and flatters the palate with racy-fresh acidity.<br />The youthful, fresh aromas become increasingly complex with proper bottle ageing and gradually fade into subtle honey notes.<br /><br />Grape variety: Gewürztraminer<br />Vine age: 20 years<br />Growing region:<br />Site: vineyard at the foot of Valentin Castle (600m) and in Pinzon/.<br />Montan (330m)<br />Exposure: Southeast / Southwest<br />Soils: Calcareous gravel soils<br />Method of cultivation: Guyot<br />Harvest: Mid-December; harvest and grape selection by hand.<br />Vinification: The dried grapes are pressed and fermented and matured partly in steel tanks and partly in small wood.<br />Yield: 20 hl/ha<br />Analytical data:<br />Alcohol content: 11,5%.<br />Residual sugar: 197 gr/lt<br />Acidity: 6,25 gr/lt<br />Drinking temperature: 8-10° C<br /><br />Recommended consumption:<br />This fruity dessert wine goes perfectly with blue cheese,<br />but also with fruity desserts like apple strudel, apple pie with vanilla<br />vanilla ice cream or 'Peach Melba'.<br />Cellaring/Potential:<br />10 years and more<br />

<br />South Tyrol DOC<br />Pinot Noir Riserva<br />Sanct Valentin<br /><br />Pinot Noir has been cultivated in South Tyrol since 1850 and is also known in many places as Pinot Noir. It is the winery's most important red wine. This grape variety is a<br />very special challenge for the winemaker, as it is very demanding in terms of soil and climate, and must also be processed with special care in the cellar. For the Pinot Noir<br />Sanct Valentin, which has been part of the prestige line since 1995, only grapes from the best vineyards and oldest vines are used. Extremely low yields and the greatest<br />care produce an elegant and highly sensual wine, characterised by structure, balance and fine tannins.<br /><br />Eye: ruby red<br />Nose: small red berries, strawberry, violet, smoky notes, cinnamon.<br />Taste: spicy, smooth, elegant and seductive<br />Variety description: Pinot noir<br />Growing site: older vineyards in St. Michael-Eppan and surroundings (400-550 m)<br />Exposure: south-southeast to south-southwest<br />Soils: moraine rubble and limestone gravel soils<br />Method of cultivation: Guyot <br />Vine age: 8 to 26 years<br />Harvest: mid-September; harvest and grape selection by hand.<br />Vinification: Cold maceration (three days) followed by fermentation and soft pressing. Fermentation in steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation and ageing in barriques. After<br />about one year, assemblage and further maturation for 10 months in concrete barrels:<br />Wine data<br /><br />Alcohol content: 14<br />Acidity: 5,45 gr/lt<br /><br />Drinking temperature: 14-16°.<br />Ageing/potential: 10 years and more<br />Recommended consumption: Ideal as an accompaniment to braised lamb shoulder or saddle, oxtail or strong cheese. <br />

Il Conte 2021 BIO MANINCOR...

A wine which tastes of Manincor; truly unique. The essence of the hills around the wine estate and the lake, full of vigour and warmth.<br /><br />Grape varieties<br />Lagrein 48 %, Merlot 35 %, Cabernet 17 %<br /><br />Location &amp; soil<br />The Manincor estate and the Panholzerhof, both sites are south-east facing overlooking the Lake of Kaltern at an altitude of 250 m above sea level; soils are rich<br />comprising sand and clay mixed with limestone gravel and other morainal deposits. These vineyards are among the warmest in all South Tyrol, pre-destined for the<br />production of great red wines.<br /><br />Vintage<br />2021 was a relatively late year. The harvest began on September 13 with Sauvignon Blanc in Lieben Aich and ended on October 20 with Cabernet Sauvignon in Manincor.<br />The ripening period in particular was char-acterised by almost perfect weather, with sunny days and clear nights where it cooled down properly. So, the year 2021 is all<br />about balance. Physiological ripeness, sugar ripeness and acidity are in an optimal balance. Ripe fruit, cool character and moderate alcohol char-acterise the vintage.<br />From end of September to mid of October we were able to harvest our Merlot, Lagrein and Cabernet Franc one after the other with perfect timing. The yield was 59 hl per<br />hectare.<br /><br />Expansion<br />Grapes from each parcel of vineyard were crushed separately and fermented in a mixture of oak and cement vats and stainless steel tanks using yeasts occurring naturally<br />in the vineyard. Skin contact lasted ten days and was rigorously controlled, during which time the cap of skins was pushed down into the fermenting liquid daily as it rose to<br />the surface in order to extract velvety, assertive but ripe tannins. Fresh fruit and elegance are the main qualities we strive for in this wine. The young wine was transferred<br />into oak barrels of varying sizes where it matured for twelve months.<br /><br />Data<br />Residual sugar: 1.2 g/l<br />Alcohol: 13 % Vol.<br />Acidity: malolactic fermentation; 5.6 g/l<br /><br />Description &amp; drinking recommendation<br />Concentrated bright ruby. A rich, seductive berry fruit and spice nose leads to a remarkably succulent, well-structured palate of white and black pepper, dark chocolate,<br />liquorice and damson with silky-textured tannins. Almost Burgundian in its drinkability.<br />Enjoy at optimum maturity from 2023 to the end of 2028.<br />Serve: just below room temperature, 60 - 64 °F<br />Delicious to accompany well-seasoned Mediterranean first courses, peppered lamb steaks and other dishes of fried or grilled red meat.<br /><br />Our claim<br />Biodynamic<br />Vegan<br />
