Vinification of the Blauburgunder Riserva DOC by Stroblhof

The Blauburgunder Riserva DOC - Stroblhof comes from the sun-kissed vineyards of the Trentino-South Tyrol region, more precisely from the prestigious Alto Adige / South Tyrol DOC area. The vines grow on optimally loosened soils whose mixture of sand, clay, and limestone gives the grapes perfect ripeness. The Pinot Noir grapes are carefully selected by hand so that only those with the ideal degree of ripeness enter production. The harvest time is precisely coordinated to achieve the best balance of sugar, acidity, and aromas.

After destemming and gentle maceration at controlled temperatures, alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and clarity of the fruity aromas. This is followed by a long maturation period, during which the wine is aged for at least twelve months in selected oak barrels. This controlled maturation gives the Blauburgunder Riserva DOC - Stroblhof its characteristic Old World style, with delicate vanilla and oak notes that blend harmoniously with the tobacco aromas. Storage under the protection of a natural cork ensures the wine’s optimal development in the bottle.

The vinification and maturation focus on the goal of producing an elegant and complex wine that reflects the character of the terroir and the grape variety at every stage. The result is a densely structured, dry red wine with lively freshness, ideally suited both for immediate enjoyment and for aging.
