“Pònkler” Pinot Nero Alto Adige DOC 2018
Pònkler is the top wine of the house and at the same time Franz Haas' essence from decades of experience with the non-demanding Pinot Nero grape. The vines, planted in 2007, grow on soils of weathered porphyry in a single vineyard at an altitude of 750 metres. The selection of French clones that have proven to be eminently suitable for high altitudes, the high density of vines and the low yields ensure a very high quality of grapes.
The stronger sunshine in the South Tyrolean altitudes gives the wine its typical ripe fruit notes. The nose is concentrated and deep, revealing ripe red and black berries, star anise and leather. In the mouth, it builds up the precise primary fruit in layers, reminiscent of medicinal herbs and cinchona bark. With every sip, it shows its class, great substance and precise tannin structure. And in the endlessly long finish, it is there again, this boundless depth and complexity.. SUPERIORE.DE
"Very pure pinot aromas of sliced strawberries and lemon bush as well as flowers such as lilacs. Subtle sandalwood. Medium to full body with ultra fine tannins and a bright and fresh finish. Linear and fine. Seductive single vineyard Alpine pinot." James Suckling

An unmistakable trademark of the Franz Haas winery are the labels of its wines. They are expressive, filled with life, colourful and the work of the Italian painter and architect Riccardo Schweizer, whose artistic career is a kindred spirit to famous painters and builders such as Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall or Le Corbusier. Since its beginnings, the winery from Montan in South Tyrol has worked with great passion to express the quality of its grapes in the best possible way. The heart of the winery beats especially for Pinot Noir. Therefore, the selection "Pinot Nero Schweizer" is bottled only in the best years.
The foundation for today's winery was laid in 1880. Since time immemorial, the helm has always been passed on to the first-born. Recently, the South Tyrolean winemaker Franz Haas VII, known for his outstanding Pinot Nero, died suddenly. His death will leave a big gap in South Tyrolean viticulture. Franz was always an enthusiast and on an eternal quest for perfection. The eighth generation now holds the fate of the winery firmly in family hands and son Franz Haas VIII follows in his father's footsteps.
Franz Haas, who is very open to innovations and new tasks, today processes grapes from around 50 hectares of his own vineyards, but also from some leased plots. Other grapes are supplied by winegrowers in the surrounding area. The vineyards are located in the municipalities of Neumarkt, Montan and Aldein and reach heights of 240 to 1,150 metres above sea level. The areas are distributed over several different microclimatic zones and have soils that offer everything from unevenly grained sands to clay to very calcareous soil.
Franz Haas VII was certainly one of the most gifted winemakers in South Tyrol, who took on the challenges of modern agriculture. This can be seen today, for example, in the advancing organic cultivation of his vineyards. In the cellar, the wine producer, who is keen to experiment and is also recognised abroad, is not afraid to cut back on technology and use wild yeasts for the red wines. In addition to the Pinot Noirs, other stylistically impeccable, elegant wines with a strong character are produced in the winery's inner sanctum - wines made from Sauvignon, Pinot Grigio or Moscato Rosa, for example. Incidentally, the first unmistakable wine label was the one for the "Pinot Nero Schweizer 1987". The Franz Haas lettering in gold on a black background was - as the estate owner proudly stated at the time - "a small sensation". SUPERIORE.DE
