Vinification of Nico Sauvignon DOC by Stroblhof

The Nico Sauvignon DOC - Stroblhof comes from the picturesque wine-growing area of Trentino-South Tyrol, more precisely from the Alto Adige / South Tyrol DOC subregion. This area is known for its cool nights and sunny days, which optimally promote the ripening of the Sauvignon Blanc grapes. The careful cultivation of the vineyards ensures that each vintage is characterized by particularly rich, ripe grapes.

The grapes are harvested by hand to select only the finest fruit and avoid mechanical damage. The production of this white wine is traditional and gentle: after the grapes are softly pressed, the must is fermented at a cool temperature to preserve the fresh and fruity aromas as fully as possible. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures, usually between 14 and 16 degrees Celsius, in order to preserve the fine acidity.

After vinification, the Nico Sauvignon DOC - Stroblhof matures for several months in stainless steel tanks. This process enhances the clarity of the aromas and preserves the wine’s lively freshness. Avoiding maturation in wooden barrels supports the clear, fruity profile and ensures a clean, dry character. At the end of the process, the wine is sealed with a natural cork, allowing gentle bottle aging for up to five years.
