Müller Thurgau Alto Adige DOC 2021
Animating white wine from Müller Thurgau with aromatic bouquet, medium body and pleasantly dry taste supported by fine acidity and spiciness. SUPERIORE.DE
"Wild herbs, pungent florals, lemon zest and a hint of petrol rise up from the 2021 Müller Thurgau. This is suave in character, with a balancing gingery spiciness and sour citrus concentration that adds fantastic tension through the finale. Tropical and exotic flowery notes linger as the 2021 Müller Thurgau finishes wickedly fresh." Vinous

“Finado” Pinot Bianco Alto Adige DOC 2022
Classic Pinot Blanc with the flavour of ripe apples, citrus fruits and pears. Elegant, balanced, harmonious flavour. Finado is not at all playful or simple, but is very precise and focussed right through to its clean finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"Cantina Andriano (Kellerei Andrian) releases a varietally pure expression of a grape that ultimately gives more to the palate than it does to the bouquet. The 2022 Alto Adige Weissburgunder Pinot Bianco Finado is crisp and linear, with citrus, crushed stone, sweet spice and saffron. The wine sees stainless steel only for a lean to mid-weight texture. You get great value at this price point." Wine Advocate
"With aromas of white peach, juicy pear and delicate alpine blossom, this Pinot Bianco captures the essence of the mountains. On the palate, it presents a refreshing blend of crisp, vibrant orchard fruit flavours, as if enjoying the pure, invigorating mountain air, and ends with a clean and invigorating finish."

"Intense, sparkling salmon red. Delicate citrus fruit and watermelon on the nose as well as some red blossom. On the palate with fine fruit melting, balanced and juicy with medium length." Falstaff
"The 2022 Rosé Lagrein is incredibly pretty, with nuances of sweet smoke, wild flowers and candied lime. It soothes with its round texture, crisp fruit and melon notes, seems a little ripe, yet beautifully balanced. Salty minerals underline the finish and leave a tactile sensation on the palate." Vinous

Light golden yellow in colour. Fine, restrained nose of delicate white flowers and yellow-fruity nuances. Juicy and clear on the palate, round texture with harmonious play, medium length and very fresh and full of character with its delicate citrus note. SUPERIORE.DE
"To say it up front: This is one of the most linear and crystalline Pinot Gris that I have tasted here so far. Mineral and herbal bouquet, cool and taut rather than pleasing, delicate pear and herbal notes. In the mouth, it scores with crystalline juiciness, a fine melt and the typical spiciness with chalky hints. Certainly one of the best Pinot Gris in South Tyrol." Weinwisser

“Rubeno” Lagrein Alto Adige DOC 2022
Lagrein Rubeno 2021 is impenetrably dark and purple-coloured in the glass and exudes an earthy blend of blackcurrants, brown spices and tobacco. The palate is juicy and supple, with purple-coloured red berries and minerals that gather towards the end. It finishes with admirable length and light tannins that linger on a lively note of salted liquorice. SUPERIORE.DE
"As the wine is poured the aromas immediately lift out showing black plum, dried cherry, candied violet and white pepper. A classic take on the grape, the wine showcases the round and plush nature of the grape on the palate with the piquant flavor that gives the wine its verve." Wine Enthusiast

Extremely delicate Sauvignon Blanc: fruity, wild bouquet with nuances of elderflower, gooseberry and tropical fruit. It is silky smooth and structured, with a balanced inner sweetness and minerality that caresses the palate with citrus fruit and a hint of nectarine. Just the right dose of fine acidity, very crisp and long on the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

“Andrius” Sauvignon Bianco Alto Adige DOC 2021
Sauvignon Andrius matures on the lees for six months and is a lively, well-structured white wine with great varietal typicity. Ripe peaches, dried apricots, juicy honeydew melon, candied almonds, flowers and a hint of mint and white pepper combine with the elegant style to create a remarkable overall picture. Great class! SUPERIORE.DE
"Elegant, powerful, typical Sauvignon Blanc nose, but with a more complex and herbaceous flavour. On the palate, the wine is more linear and powerful with a distinctive mineral-salty note on the finish." Weinwisser
"Bright straw yellow with sparkling reflections. Slightly reductive and restrained on the nose, showing notes of juicy lemons, meadow herbs and cold smoke as well as fine wet stone after a little time. Racy and precise on the palate, the fruit stays in the background, builds up full-bodied and remains on the palate for a long time, will be able to mature well." Falstaff
"Vibrant citrus and stony-mineral characters with a juicy, ripe gooseberry texture, fresh acidity and a leafy finish." Decanter
"Well cut and fresh, almost statuesque, but with a sense of balance and grace, while flavours of kiwi, lime granita, melon rind and chive blossom accompany the slightly chalky texture, along with mouth-watering acidity and a hint of salinity." Wine Spectator
"The partially oak-aged 2021 Sauvignon Blanc Andrius shows bright citrusy notes, tropical fruit, green papaya and freshly squeezed lime. The wine is lean in terms of mouthfeel, but the aromas deliver extra dimension to the lifted flavor profile of this varietal-expressive release." Wine Advocate

The harvest usually takes place in November, when almost 100% of the grapes are affected by botrytis (noble rot). Rich, sparkling golden yellow colour. Clearly characterised, intense nose, with notes of dried apricot, quince, raspberry and beeswax in the background.

The South Tyrolean Pinot Noir Riserva Anrar is fresh and light on the palate with wild berries and cassis, followed by dried mint and lavender flavours. This red wine fermented in steel and matured in barriques is silky and smooth, almost without rough edges. Cantina Andriano Kellerei Andrian works with a skilful hand when it comes to Pinot Noir, preserving the nuanced elegance of the grape variety's aromas. SUPERIORE.DE
"Very clear in colour and aroma with a contoured fruity body and typical Pinot aromas. Finely woven and full of finesse on the palate with marvellous cherry notes, red flowers, fine-meshed tannins, good length. A very fragrant Pinot. Bravo!" Weinwisser
"Bright ruby red with a garnet-red rim. Nose of cherries and raspberries, then slightly smoky from the wood maturation. Mouth-filling on the palate, with a fine tannin structure and a long, fruity final." Falstaff
"This Pinot Noir is expressive from the start, opening with aromas of fresh red berries, sweet baking spices and forest floor. On the palate, the wine takes shape with an elegance that belies its youthfulness, while the flavours of cherry, clove, vanilla and fresh earth work together harmoniously on the lively finish." Wine Enthusiast
"The South Tyrolean Pinot Noir Riserva Anrar 2020 comes straight from the land of sweets and immediately reveals aromas of cherry lollipops and watermelon. On the second nose, the flavours become spicy, with sandalwood. The wine is fluid with an interesting evolution, and there is a hint of grilled herbs or pressed rose on the finish." Wine Advocate

A new era began for the Andrian Winery in 2008. Administratively, it has been part of the Cantina Terlanoinery ever since, but the Andrian brand and its wines are now better known and more independent than ever. At the end of the 19th century, the winegrowers of the dreamy village of Andrian, situated on the right bank of the Adige River at an altitude of 285 metres, joined forces to form South Tyrol's first cooperative winery. With great diligence and flair, the 60 members constantly work on a wine quality that can hold its own in modern times. After the merger with Cantina Terlano, which is located on the left bank of the Etsch River, the profile of the cooperative was newly sharpened. The sales regions were considerably expanded. Especially in Italy and in the USA, the level of awareness of the Andrian winery, long predominantly popular in Germany, has risen significantly.
The mostly east and south-facing vines grow on clayey limestone soils interspersed with angular white dolomite rock. The loose composition of the subsoil ensures a balanced water balance, good aeration and deep rooting. The climate in the central Adige Valley is Mediterranean. The vines enjoy particularly many hours of sunshine. On the gentle eastern slopes at an altitude of 260 to 340 metres, especially late-ripening grape varieties are pampered by the sun.
After the alliance with Terlan, the second oldest winery in South Tyrol, the number of Andrian wines was thinned out. The house's drops are vinified into two lines, depending on the grape material and processing method. The classic selection of ten individual DOC wines with a terroir-emphasised character is prominently complemented by six selection wines true to the variety, which come from older vines whose yields are kept extremely low. The selections, which mature in the extended cellar partly in small oak barrels and partly in stainless steel, impress with their balanced acidity, powerful elegance, freshness and complexity. Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Gewürztraminer, Lagrein and Pinot Blanc are most strongly represented in the vine portfolio, with roughly equal shares.
According to the management, white wines account for 64 percent and red wines for 36 percent of the total production in the newly structured Andrian winery. In the meantime, the cooperative, which also has many years of expertise in reds, has its first Pinot Noirs in its range. SUPERIORE.DE
"The leap in quality is remarkable and the wines are really something to behold. A classic is the Lagrein Tor di Lupo, which was one of the first premium Lagrein in the country at the end of the 1980s. The Andrian sites are obviously also very suitable for Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Gewürztraminer. A novelty is the Pinot Noir Anrar, which is only available in very limited quantities." Falstaff
