Since the end of the 19th century, this French grape variety has been at home in the southern Eisack Valley. At the Ebnerhof, Sauvignon grows on barren, stony gravel-marl soil – and it is precisely this barrenness that makes all the difference. The Unterthiner family employs rigorous yield control, manual leaf removal and thinning to ensure concentrated grape material. In the cellar, they rely on temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless-steel tanks to preserve the variety's characteristic freshness.

In the glass, the wine presents a straw-yellow colour with a delicate green rim; its bouquet clearly reveals notes of gooseberry and elderflower – classic Sauvignon aromas without the overripeness often found in southern wines. On the palate, it impresses with a crisp acidity that pairs beautifully with a fruity, spicy flavour. The stony soil leaves its mineral-salty signature, lending the wine a lively tension and smooth drinkability. A Sauvignon that demonstrates what is possible when alpine altitude meets a Mediterranean climate. SUPERIORE.DE
