Grüner Veltliner
Grüner Veltliner is a white grape variety originating in Central Europe and widespread above all in Austria, where it is by far the most widespread variety, so much so as to be the true enological symbol of the country. It is an ancient grape, which loves cold weather and strong temperature changes. In Italy, it has found a home in the Isarco Valley, the most northerly planted area of our peninsula. Grüner Veltliner is a generous grape variety, which must be grown with low yields to obtain quality wines. Its bouquet expresses pleasant citrus notes, of lime, grapefruit, vegetable hints, aromas of white fruit, tropical nuances and a characteristic spiciness reminiscent of white pepper. The sip is dynamic and vibrant, always supported by a rather high acidity. Its characteristics of finesse and elegance require combinations with fish dishes or delicate white meats.
