Alto Adige DOC Sauvignon 'Prail' 2023 (750 ml.) Colterenzio
'Prail' by Colterenzio is produced using historic vineyards and this Sauvignon Blanc is born after careful vinification in steel for about 14 days. Only a part of the must ferments in large wooden vats, the rest remains in steel. After 6 months of separate maturation on fine yeasts, the wines are carefully assembled and bottled. It is a characteristic wine, a perfect example of the great white wines of Alto Adige. Unmistakable elegance and a satisfying fullness releasing aromas of elderflower, hawthorn and white fruits. Frankly fresh with a discreet mineral aftertaste. Particularly suitable for asparagus-based dishes and an ideal accompaniment for fish prepared with and aromatic herbs. Also excellent as an aperitif.
- Allergens
- Contains sulphites (by sulphites we mean the sulphur dioxide that is added to wine, to preserve it, thanks to its disinfectant, antioxidant and stabilizing action)
CLT-SAUVIGNON-PRAIL-2023
The wines from the hamlet of Colterenzio were favourites of Archduke Sigismund when he resided at Firmiano Castle in the 15th century, though the area was producing fine wines much earlier. Around 15 b.C. a Roman country gentleman named Cornelius settled here and established his "Cornelianum" wine estate and the first wine culture in the area. The Roman name eventually evolved into "Cornaiano", the village Colterenzio calls home. The Colterenzio winegrowers' co-operative was founded by 28 vintners in 1960. Over the years other passionate viticulturalists from diversified micro-zones in the area joined the collective, and today nearly 300 members cultivate approximately 300 hectares of vineyards.
