Weissburgunder - Petruskellerei

The Weissburgunder from the wine region Trentino-Alto Adige reveals itself in the glass in a luminous golden yellow. Poured into a white wine glass, this Italian white wine offers wonderfully expressive aromas of green apple, rounded off with additional fruity nuances.

This wine impresses with its elegantly dry taste profile. It was bottled with remarkably low residual sugar. As one might expect from a wine, this Italian delight enchantingly balances dryness. Excellent taste doesn't necessarily require a lot of sugar. Well-balanced and complex, this creamy white wine presents itself on the palate. In the finish, this Weissburgunder from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine region captivates with notable length. Again, hints of green apple are evident. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the soils dominated by gravel are added.

Vinification of Petruskellerei Weissburgunder

The basis for the balanced Weissburgunder from Italy are grapes of the Pinot Blanc variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Trentino-Alto Adige. The vines root deeply into gravelly soils here. The grapes for this Italian white wine are harvested exclusively by hand when perfectly ripe. After manual harvest, the grapes are quickly transferred to the winery. Here, they are sorted and gently crushed. Subsequently, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the Weissburgunder can harmonize further on the fine lees for several months.
