About this wine

Grapes

Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Technical data

Alto Adige DOC. The 2023 release has 14.0% alcohol and comes in a 0.75 l bottle.

Tasting profile

Deep, concentrated ruby red with garnet highlights. Elegant cassis and lightly herbaceous Cabernet tones meet Merlot’s warm fruit. The palate is full and fruit-driven, balancing assertive acidity with supple tannins and finishing with considerable length.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 15–17 °C. Suitable partners include beef, lamb, game, rich casseroles and mature or strongly flavoured cheeses.
