Gennen Sauvignon Blanc - Nals Margreid

The barrel-aged Gennen Sauvignon Blanc from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region is a dense light yellow in the glass. Ideally poured into a white wine glass, this white wine from the Old World offers wonderfully expressive aromas of lime, morello cherry, plum and lemongrass, rounded off by sun-warmed rocks, green peppers and forest floor, which are contributed by the barrel ageing process.

The Nals Margreid Gennen Sauvignon Blanc delights with its elegantly dry taste. It was bottled with just 2.4 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so this Italian naturally delights with the finest balance despite its dryness. Taste does not necessarily need residual sugar. This dense white wine is full-bodied and complex on the palate. Thanks to its vital fruit acidity, the Gennen Sauvignon Blanc is wonderfully fresh and lively on the palate. The finish of this white wine from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region, more precisely from Alto Adige / South Tyrol DOC, ultimately delights with a good aftertaste.

Vinification of the Nals Margreid Gennen Sauvignon Blanc

This white wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, namely Sauvignon Blanc. Only the best grapes were used for this exceptionally powerful single-varietal wine from Nals Margreid. In Trentino-Alto Adige, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of sedimentary and weathered rock. The grapes for this white wine from Italy are harvested exclusively by hand once optimum ripeness has been ensured. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately taken to the winery. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks and large oak barrels at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by ageing for several months in large oak barrels.
