About the wine: Vernatsch SONNTALER is a blend of our oldest vineyards. The vines are between 60 and 90 years old. Old vines naturally produce low and therefore very
high quality yields. Traditionally, the SONNTALER is a blend of different Vernatsch varieties with a high percentage of Grauvernatsch. The ideal terroir and the traditional
ageing in large Slavonian wooden barrels give a wine with a complex aroma of raspberries, wild strawberries, cherries and red currants. The elegant, slender body is gripping
on the palate. Fine-grained tannins give the smooth, varietal fruitiness a long and hearty finish. SONNTALER: the classic.

Vernatsch is considered the lightest red wine variety in the world, which is why the drinking temperature is particularly important: we recommend 13°C!
