Kellerei Kurtatsch - Sonntaler Schiava Alto Adige 2022

IN STOCK

As one of the oldest wine cooperatives in Alto Adige, Kellerei Kurtatsch looks back on a long tradition. The esteem for their unique terroir, craftsmanship and inestimably valuable experience in the vineyard are handed down from generation to generation. In this way, 190 families form a strong team which still remains family oriented and down-to-earth.  

Outstanding wine is made in the vineyard. That’s why Kurtatsch considers their members – who do the vineyard work – to be the protagonists. For generations, they have cultivated a special connection to their vineyards, and know every single grapevine. This invaluable knowledge, paired with the small structure of the Cantina, offers the best prerequisites for the production of unique, characterful wines.

Thanks to the 190 small-structured family farms that cultivate 190 hectares of vineyards in a sustainable way, Kellerei Kurtatsch is able to select the best grape material for each individual location.

Temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, malolactic fermentation and ageing in concrete tanks.

Schiava SONNTALER vines are between 60 and 90 years old. Old vines produce inherently lower and therefore higher quality yields. Traditionally, SONNTALER is an assemblage of different Schiava varieties with a large share of Schiava grigia. Ideal terroir and traditional ageing in large Slavonian wooden barrels result in a wine with complex aromas of raspberries, wild strawberries, cherries and redcurrants. Its elegant, lean body is gripping on the palate. Fine-grained tannins give the smooth fruitiness typical for the variety a long, hearty finish.
