South Tyrol DOC Growing area: All the grapes used to produce this wine come from a single vineyard located near Lake Montiggl (Eppan). The particularity of this vineyard contributes to the development of botrytis, which produces a great dessert wine. Vinification and ageing: The grapes are harvested by hand at the end of November and delivered in small containers. After a short maceration and gentle whole bunch pressing, the must is clarified from the lees by natural sedimentation. Fermentation takes place over the period of 6 months in small oak barrels and ageing for 15 months also takes place in small oak barrels.
Wine portrait: Aromas of dried fruit, ripe apricots and quince form the aroma components, rounded off with a fresh breeze of citrus fruits. In the mouth, the wine is soft, full, with a pronounced sweetness, long-lasting in the finish. The Spätlese Pasithea Oro is drunk as a dessert wine with desserts, but it also goes perfectly with blue cheese, mature and spicy cheeses. A unique pleasure!
