Grapes: Pinot Bianco – Alto Adige DOC
Origin: This Pinot Bianco is a selection of the best vineyards of the valley
floor and steep slopes near the vineyard estate. It florishes under outstanding
climatic conditions on a stony, sandy and extremely chalky soil. The poor yield
per hectare and the particular terroir are responsible for the outstanding
quality of the wine. The fascinating interplay between tradition and
innovation, man and the surroundings, sense and sensuality finds expression
in the passion and sensitivity with which Peter Zemmer brings this wine to life.
Yield per hectare: 60 hl
Vinification: After the grapes arrive, they are gently pressed and clarified
through the natural settling of sediments. The alcoholic fermentation is carried
out with pure strains of yeast at a controlled temperature of 18° C (64° F) in
stainless steel tanks. After several months of ripening on the yeast this
elegant wine achieves its perfection.
Characteristic properties: The rich aroma as well as the excellent acidity
make this wine hard, rich and particularly elegant.
