Hofstätter

Vernatsch, or Schiava in Italian, is the most common red grape variety in South Tyrol. This light, fresh red wine is also known as Kalterersee and St. Magdalener. Hofstätter's Vernatsch is a typical representative with pronounced fruit flavours and a delicate almond note. SUPERIORE.DE

A more than respectable performance for a so-called basic Lagrein: minty freshness, accentuated by floral notes and a hint of white pepper. The 2022 Lagrein still seems a little hesitant to show its full potential today, but the first sip already reveals a deep, silky texture. This is matched by a crisp red and black fruit flavour, driven by juicy acidity and plenty of pressure. Very impressive and with potential! SUPERIORE.DE

Notes of gooseberry interplaying with a hint of redcurrant, hints of elderflower and a hint of nettle and flint. Animating and of medium weight on the palate, fine, harmonious and ending on a pleasant mineral-balsamic note. SUPERIORE.DE

Dusty rose and lavender tones complement wild strawberries. On the palate, it is characterised by juicy textures and ripe wild berries, complemented by a hint of orange zest and noticeable mineral notes. The Meczan rejuvenates with a fresh, almost crisp finish. A South Tyrolean Pinot Noir could hardly be more harmonious. SUPERIORE.DE

Straw yellow colour and intense, multi-faceted fruit aroma of honeydew melon and summer flowers. Lots of substance on the palate, complex and of great aromatic depth with good structure and length." SUPERIORE.DE

This international cuvée presents itself in a bright ruby red with violet reflections, which nevertheless represents typical South Tyrol. Intense scent of undergrowth and spicy aromas, harmonious, full-bodied and spicy on the palate with medium length. SUPERIORE.DE

Gold-coloured Spätlese (late harvest) of enormous intensity and density, exuding a seductive fragrance of exotic fruits such as mango and papaya with a delicate hint of pineapple and lychee. On the palate, the opulent play of flavours is repeated and ends in a long, impressive finish. SUPERIORE.DE

The "Vigna" classification guarantees and designates the origin of a single-vineyard wine in South Tyrol. The Pinot Bianco from the single vineyard San Michele from the Barthenau winery has a strong personality that fully unfolds after an additional year of ageing in the bottle. It has a rich bouquet of green apple and banana, a full-bodied flavour with plenty of fruit, a medium, finely balanced acidity and a long mineral finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Strong and warm red wine in Riserva quality with pronounced dark blackberry flavours and a fine smoky wood note. The full flavour is beautifully balanced with a remarkable finish. Vigna Steinraffler comes from the single vineyard of the same name and is undisputedly one of the region's Lagrein elite. SUPERIORE.DE

The dark, ruby red colour alone gives an idea of the enormous concentration of this Pinot Nero Riserva. The complex aroma with the multi-faceted flavours of a classic Burgundy is fascinating. Sour cherries and raspberries, delicate vanilla tones and fine spices. A fleshy, sensual and enveloping structure on the palate, plenty of elegance and a taut, dynamic finish. SUPERIORE.DE
