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 />

Spumante D'Asti BERA 2024...
The grapes used to produce this finely aromatic Asti spumante come from Moscato bianco vineyards on soil rich in limestone. The continuous 'perlage' and persistent<br />foam are a prelude to the ample and intense perfume reminiscent of orange blossom and sage.

Ideal<br />with dessert, the wine of the party, as an aperitif and for any other occasion to remember.<br /><br />TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:<br />Vineyard exposure: east-south to south-west, with rows oriented to take full advantage of the sun's action on leaves and bunches.<br />Soil composition: clayey-tufaceous soil rich in limestone, which enhances the finesse and aromaticity of the wines, very important for this grape variety.<br />Vine density: nr. 4000/5000 vines per hectare from 5 to 40 years.<br />Type of training: low plant with simple guyot, tending to bring the leafy part upwards, in order to expose the bunches to the sun's action and encourage photosynthesis on<br />the leaves. A maximum of 8/9 fruit buds are left.<br />Harvest: 1st or 2nd decade of September, picked by hand.<br /><br />ORGANOLEPTIC DATA SHEET:<br />Denomination: Asti DOCG<br />Grape variety: White Muscat<br />Colour: more or less deep straw yellow colour.<br />Perlage: fine and persistent.<br />Bouquet: rich and intense fragrant aroma of Muscat grapes mixed with the scent of yeast and floral notes.<br />Taste: delicately sweet flavour, in harmony with the right acidity, moderate alcohol content and enlivened by the development of the mousse.<br />Serving suggestions: Serve chilled, 6-8°C on dessert, with various pastries, as an aperitif, as a thirst quencher at any time of day, but especially on any festive occasion.<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 />
