Food Matching Note:

Salads and white meat dishes, such as warm jasmine rice salad with shrimp and Thai herbs, grilled asparagus or steamed fish fillets with scallion-ginger oil.

Tasting Note:

Displays a fresh aroma and flavour reminiscent of green apples with a fruity palate and a touch of honeyed complexity alongside crisp acidity and a refreshing, clean finish.

Vinification Note:

As little as possible and as much as is absolutely necessary is the motto of the professional winery team. Experience and intuition go hand in hand with the most up-to-date technology. Fermentation tanks lined with a refrigeration liquid jacket, and high capacity refrigeration units are used for temperature controlled fermentation in order to preserve varietal character in white wines. There is still controversy surrounding methods of "raising" the young wine and the team at Colterenzio are constantly in touch with colleagues in other wine-growing areas from France to California to New Zealand in order to utilise the most modern methods.

Detailed Vinification Note:

There is still controversy surrounding methods of "raising" the young wine and the team at Colterenzio are constantly in touch with colleagues in other wine-growing areas from France to California to New Zealand in order to utilise the most modewrn methods. The search for inner harmony, for individual nuances begins in the vineyard with the vine and the grape. As nature is the decisive element it is obvious that these wines cannot be made every year. Consistent with their habitual, uncompromising commitment to quality the Colterenzio team accepts this fact and such specialities are only offered when absolutely successful.
