      Zesty & Mineral

      Cantina Bolzano, based in the town of Bolzano, traces its roots to two of Alto Adige’s most historic cooperatives: Santa Magdalena, est. 1930 and Cantina Gries, est. 1908. After deciding to merge in 2001, Cantina Bolzano was created.

      The village of Bolzano is located in the middle of a valley basin surrounded by hilly vineyards that grow from 200 meters above sea level up to 1000. This elegant wine comes from selected vineyards around Bolzano and really delivers with fresh, floral aromas and a nice acidity. Expect golden delicious apples, pear; and a light scent of peaches and pineapples on the nose and palate.

      A wine like Pinot Blanc is best suited to foods with more subtle flavoring. It will match up well with soft cheeses, salads with cream dressings and flaky fish.

      Kellerei Bozen - Cantine Bolzano

      Cantina Bolzano, based in the town of Bolzano, traces its roots to two of Alto Adige’s most historic cooperatives: Santa Magdalena, est. 1930 and Cantina Gries, est. 1908. After deciding to merge in 2001, Cantina Bolzano was created. Bolzano is located in the middle of a valley basin surrounded by hilly vineyards that grow from 200 meters above sea level up to 1000. North and south meet in this valley, and the sun warms the stony soils with its pronounced diurnal temperatures, protecting the vines from the cold.

      The average growers’ plots in Sudtirol averages only approx. 1 hectare, and the area, with its famed reputation and steep slopes, is an expensive area to farm. The member of Bolzano (approx. 300 in all) own many of the best vineyards throughout the region, including the Valle Isarco, and pool their resources to create top quality wines. And while no grower is certified organic, many practice organic viticulture and all of them adhere to natural practices in their vineyards. Most growers have lived on their farms with their families for generations. They protect their land and cultivate their vineyards as they have done for generations with total respect of the environment where they live.

      A pinot bianco in Adige clothing of smart freshness and fruit-centricity out of the higher reaches of the Bolzen amphitheatric bowl. Some herbology but really just fresh, cool and smart. Drink 2019-2020. Tasted November 2019.

      Fresh & Crisp

      Peter Zemmer grows the grapes in the alpine region Alto Adige. With the natural growth of the vines and loose regulation of the harvest, Peter Zemmer produces a wine that tempts the palate with extraordinary freshness and liveliness. The wines from the 'La Lot' vineyard are approachable in style that appeal to all levels of wine enthusiasts.

      This refreshing expression of Pinot Grigio is dry and medium-bodied. On the palate, the wine shows lots of tart lemon juice and lemon zest along with crunchy green apple and Asian pear. There is an expression of stony and chalky minerality on the palate which is very representative of the region of Alto Adige. The wine finishes fresh and zesty.

      Enjoy as an aperitif, or pair with shellfish, poultry and vegetable-based appetizers.

      About the Winery

      Peter Zemmer

      Since the establishment of this family business in 1928, the Peter Zemmer winery has been producing top-quality wines on some of the finest estates in and around Cortina s.s.d.v. in Alto Adige – South Tyrol.

      Peter Zemmer’s extensive experience, detailed and innovative knowledge — together with the perfect natural environment — guarantees the quality wines have an expressive character and are in harmony with the surrounding nature.

      The expressive character of the wines is formed in the vineyard. Intensive nurturing of the grapevines, as well as the careful selection, are the essential prerequisites for authentic wines. Peter Zemmer attaches great importance to the production of natural wines that accurately reflect their character of origin and expressively unite the unique terrain.

      There is a fascinating interplay between tradition and innovation, man and the surroundings, and sense and sensuality in these wines. It is with this passion and sensitivity that Peter Zemmer brings his wines to life.

      Nals Margreid Schiava 'Galea' Alto Adige DOC 2019

      Alto Adige, Italy

      Tax included.

      The vineyards of the South Tyrolean winegrowers' cooperative Nals Margreid extend over fourteen areas from Nals in the north, situated between Bolzano and Merano, to Margreid in the southern part of the lowlands. Thus, the cooperative in the Adige Valley, which was formed from the union of the Nals Winery (founded in 1932) and Margreid-Entiklar (founded in 1954) and has 137 members, has a considerable variety of different terroirs and growing areas.

      Bright ruby, vinous aromas and appetizingly fresh scent of red cherries. On the palate fruity and with velvety tannin, harmonious and of good length.

      "The 2019 Schiava Galea from Nals Margreid is intense, as a wave of confectionary spice gives way to ripe strawberry and cherry with wild herbal tones and hints of floral undergrowth. It’s silky, enveloping, sapid and sweet, showcasing a host of wild berry fruits which are kept in balance by zesty acids. After the menagerie of extroverted fruit character the Galea closes surprisingly fresh. Readers will be hard-pressed to put this glass down." VINOUS
