Sauvignon Südtirol DOC - Erste+Neue

The Sauvignon Alto Adige from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region has a bright light yellow color in the glass.

As if that wasn't already impressive, the ageing in stainless steel adds further aromas such as juniper, Mediterranean herbs and green peppers.

This white wine from Erste+Neue is the right choice for all wine lovers who like as little residual sugar in their wine as possible. However, it is never harsh or brittle, as you would naturally expect from a wine in the high quality wine range. On the palate, this balanced white wine is characterized by an incredibly light texture. The Sauvignon Alto Adige is wonderfully fresh and lively on the palate thanks to its concise fruit acidity. On the finish, this young wine from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region finally delights with good length. There are again hints of acacia and honeysuckle.

Vinification of the Erste+Neue Sauvignon Alto Adige

The basis for the balanced Sauvignon Alto Adige from Italy are grapes from the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety. After harvesting, the grapes are quickly transported to the winery. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. At the end of fermentation, the Sauvignon Alto Adige can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for a few months. Once the wine is finished, the Sauvignon Alto Adige is carefully harmonized.
