<br />KERNER<br />GRAPPA<br /><br />Kerner Grappa. Kerner, which is only cultivated on about 30 hectares in South Tyrol's Vinschgau and especially in the Eisack Valley, is a comparatively young grape<br />variety - it was bred in the 1920s as a cross between red Trollinger and white Riesling. The vine produces a spicy, straw-yellow white wine with greenish reflections. The<br />Hofbrennerei Zu Plun obtains the marc for this wine from the Köferer vineyard in Neustift, where, in addition to Riesling and Silvaner, a solid Kerner with the minerality typical<br />of the growing region is pressed. Its class is also found in a clear grappa full of character. Like the wine, the Kerner Grappa from the Hofbrennerei Zu Plun is reserved on the<br />nose, but dry, full and very present on the palate. On the finish, this distillate has a restrained, finely structured aroma profile with nutmeg-like flavours.<br /><br />Raw material: marc from the Köferer Hof in Neustift, Valle Isarco<br />Distilling method: discontinuous, double distilled, copper still heated in a water bath<br />Alcohol strength: 42% VOL.<br />Volume: 0,50 L.<br />Colour-Clarity: colourless, clear<br />Nose: Restrained nose, delicate.<br />Palate: Dry but present<br />Finish: Finely structured aroma profile with nutmeg-like flavours.<br />
