Vinification of the Appius 3.0l Double Magnum - St. Michael-Eppan Winery

St. Michael-Eppan Winery cultivates the grapes for the Appius 3.0l Double Magnum in the protected growing region of Trentino-Alto Adige, an area known for its calcareous soils and mild climate. Meticulous manual work begins with the selective harvesting of the ripe cuvée grapes, which have reached an optimal level of maturity to ensure the complex aromatic profile. After harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed to preserve their clear, fresh aromas. The vinification combines tradition and modernity: the must undergoes controlled fermentation at a low temperature, optimally preserving its freshness and aromatic potential. For maturation, the wine is stored in stainless steel tanks, which enhances its dry, tannin-driven profile. Maturation in large double-magnum bottles allows for slow harmonization and extends its storage potential for up to seven years. Despite its complexity, the Appius remains approachable and retains its characteristic freshness and minerality, which make the South Tyrol region so unique.
