Riesling grappa. The Riesling grape produces its best results in cool areas, which is why this variety is a typical wine of northern wine-growing regions, such as Alsace. Like all grape varieties that appreciate permeable, mineral soils, good aeration and cool nights, Riesling feels very much at home in Italy's northernmost vineyards around Bressanone. The cultivation of this variety is enjoying a noticeable increase here, with the focus on quality and the search for a special, regionally typical Riesling. The wines are characterised by an ethereal aroma and a lively taste. From the Riesling marc of small vineyards above Neustift, Florian Rabanser distils an excellent Riesling grappa of outstanding quality, which captivates with a diverse play of fruit and a soft, typical palate.
