A grape variety like a secret: Rosenmuskateller migrated from Sicily to the Alps in the middle of the 19th century and found its second home on the alluvial soils of the Anreiterhof farm in Moritzing near Bolzano. Today it is one of the rarest grape varieties in South Tyrol – and the Rosis from the Bolzano winery is one of its finest interpreters. After harvest, the select grapes are subjected to natural air-drying, which concentrates their flavours and intensifies their sweetness. Temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel and patient bottle ageing preserve the delicate fullness of flavour.

In the glass, the wine shines in a light ruby red colour with darker reflections. The nose unfolds a beguiling interplay of rose petals and nutmeg notes, accompanied by red forest berries and a fine spiciness. On the palate, Rosis is soft and full-bodied, with a fine sweetness that is elegantly balanced by lively fruit acidity. A dessert wine of rare poetry – perfect for Linzertorte, poppy seed strudel or chocolate desserts, but also a pleasure to savour on its own. SUPERIORE.DE
