Rich yellow-green colour, intense aromas of fruit, flowers and light nutty notes. On the palate, fruit depth, delicate mineral and salty notes and well-integrated acidity give powerful elegance and character. SUPERIORE.DE

The pure variety Vernatsch, also known as Schiava, presents itself bright ruby red, with aromas of cherries and cranberries, some cocoa and bitter almonds on the nose. Its uncomplicated yet complex, juicy taste has a pleasantly sociable nature. With its low acidity and tannin content, it makes for a light-hearted drinking flow and whets the appetite for a second glass. SUPERIORE.DE

Pinot Blanc Lepus (lat. field hare) with pale green colour and yellow reflexes. Wonderfully fragrant of fresh bread, dried field flowers and a hint of almonds. On the palate its distinct personality is evident, accompanied by good structure and harmonious acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, bright straw yellow. In the nose first after peppermint, then delicate apple and white peach. On the palate balanced and harmonious, shows a fruity core and fine spicy tension, good length with young play." Falstaff

"Pretty almond and cherry blossom and lemon flavors come to the fore. Bright and citrusy on the medium-bodied palate, but shows good density on the finish." James Suckling

Pale straw yellow with green nuances. Warm notes of cloves and fennel, fine lychee notes. On the palate finely drawn, good play between fullness and delicacy, shows a lot of spice there too, nice final. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dried mangoes, dried papaya and some elderflower make for a ripe yet exciting nose. Rather taut and citrusy for a gewurz on the palate, which is medium in body, but quite expressive in terms of flavors." James Suckling

As a young wine, manna has golden yellow shades, after a few years of maturation they turn into strong golden tones. Manna is very special: complex, multi-layered with a bouquet of elder, pistachio, apricot, nutmeg and delicate rose petals. Concentrated, voluminous and at the same time elegant and complex in taste. A wine that, as it evolves, can be discovered from different perspectives and increasingly unfolds its character. Even the young wine changes in the glass and surprises again and again. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fragrant zesty white stone fruits, herbs and wild flowers. Elegant with an aromatic, lively and juicy palate with impressive freshness." Decanter

"Aromas of tropical fruit, graphite, white rose and Alpine herb surge out of the glass on this fragrant white. A blend of Riesling, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Kerner and late-harvested Traminer, the medium-bodied savory palate evokes ripe apricot, grapefruit, pineapple and tangy saline alongside bright acidity." Wine Enthusiast

"Loads of mangoes and apricots on the nose follow through to a full body with lots of dried fruit, such as peaches, following through to a lively, fresh palate. Light bitter citrus on the finish. Complex as always." James Suckling

Intense bouquet with notes of roses, cloves and orange peels, the taste just as complex and extremely pleasant and long. This rose muscatel dolce is excellent with dry desserts or spicy oriental dishes. It can also be used as an unusual digestif or as a meditation wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark luminous ruby with brilliant core. In the nose after sugared blackberries, wild berries, cassis, elderberries, dried rose petals. Balanced on the palate with tightly woven tannins, opens on pickled dark berries, fine play between sweetness and tannins, juicy." Falstaff

A masterpiece is the strong ruby red Pinot Nero Schweizer. Its bouquet is large, complex and reminds of very ripe small forest berries. These special aromas can also be found in the mouth, together with an inviting and slightly tannic body, which gives the wine a long life. SUPERIORE.DE

"The selection "Pinot Nero Schweizer" is bottled only in the best years. Ripe, candied dark cherry with delicate floral and red berry notes. Juicy, broad palate, filling the mouth, but with delicate and svelte nuances, only in the final the tannin is slightly drying out and (still) porous." Weinwisser

"Intense, rich ruby red. In the nose noble notes of Amarena cherries, ripe strawberries and dark chocolate. Balanced and harmonious on the palate, deep wine with elegant acid nerve, bitter orange, fine, robust tannin, still a little young." Falstaff

"A pretty red with dried-strawberry and lemon-rind aromas and flavors. Medium body. Fine tannins and a clean finish." James Suckling

"Topped with a screwcap, the 2016 Alto Adige Pinot Nero Schweizer offers earthy tones on the back of redcurrant, cherry, wild roses and grilled herbs. This wine always offers above-average precision and focus, but this beautiful vintage takes it all to the next level. The wine is mild and silky in terms of mouthfeel, and the persistence is long and fresh." Robert Parker

The bouquet is big, complex and reminds of very ripe small forest berries. These particular aromas are also found in the mouth, together with an inviting, slightly tannic and very elegant body, which gives the wine a long life. SUPERIORE.DE

"A rich, complex red with dried berries, cedar, toffee and smoke on the nose and palate. Full-bodied and very layered with round, soft tannins on the mid-palate that open up to a tangy and vivid finish. Drinkable now, but better in 2022." James Suckling

Manna is very special: complex, multi-layered with a bouquet of elderberry, pistachio, apricot, nutmeg and delicate rose petals.

Already the young wine changes in the glass and surprises again and again. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, rich straw yellow with a light lemon yellow tinge. Opens in the nose with complex bouquet, floreal to white roses, then young quince, fine nutmeg spice, ripe apricot, delicate smoke, very complex. Smooth and juicy on the palate, opens on a fruity core, brisk, multi-layered and yet light-footed, grips in the final neatly". Falstaff

"In this blend of mostly Riesling and Chardonnay with smaller parts Sauvignon Blanc, Kerner and Gewürztraminer, you taste some of the floral intensity of the grapes, along with notes of honey and passion fruit." Robert Parker

"Tangy and layered with cooked-pear and pineapple character. Full body. Flavorful finish. Perfumed at the end. Always a lovely blended white." James Suckling
