Müller Thurgau originated from a cross between Riesling and Madeleine Royale and is named after its breeder, Prof. Hermann Müller, who came from Thurgau (Switzerland)<br />and carried out the extremely successful cross at the end of the 19th century in Geisenheim (Germany). In the Eisack Valley, this variety thrives mainly at higher altitudes<br />on warm sloping terraces with a very fine soil structure. The climate, which becomes harsher as the altitude increases, and above all the warm days and cool nights during<br />the ripening period, give Müller Thurgau the freshness and variety of aromas that make it so sought-after.<br /><br />Vintage 2023<br />Variety Müller Thurgau<br />Altitude 550 - 970 m<br />Orientation south east<br />Slope 55%<br />Yield per hectare 70 hl<br />Training system guyot<br />Period of harvest mid september<br />Soil Stony, lean, skeleton-rich alluvial soils containing diorite and quartz phyllite<br />Vinification Delicate processing and crushing, controlled temperature fermentation and ageing on fine lees in stainless steel tanks, no malolactic fermentation<br />Characteristic<br />Color from greenish to straw yellow<br />Nose intense, characteristic with light muscat and elder flower scents<br />Taste fresh and spiced, marked character, slightly aromatic and with a full and pleasant body<br />Ageing capacity 5 years<br />Pairing<br />recommendations<br />ligth appetizers, baked or grilled shellfish, velvety soups, light egg-based dishes, excellent as an aperitif<br />Serving temperature 8° C - 10°C<br /><br />Analytical data<br />Alcohol 12,5 % vol.<br />Residual sugar 2,2 g/l<br />total acidity 6 g/l<br /><br />Recycling Info:<br /><br />Check the regulations of your municipality<br />Bottle GL 71 - glass - waste glass collection<br />Closure FOR 51 - cork - sep. collection for organic waste<br />Capsule C/ALU 90 - aluminium - aluminium and metal collection<br />
