Cuvée "Ars Lyrica" - DOC Alto Adige Bianco

A light yet profound poem

The choice of name for this wine is no coincidence: “Ars Lyrica” is a delightful poem for both nose and palate. It is a cuvée or blend of equal parts of different white wine varieties:Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco. The grapes themselves are from three different locations: the Preyhof at around 550 metres above sea level, Leisenpuiten estate at 500 metres above sea level, Seehof at 230 metres above sea level. The interaction of these different varieties, the reduced yield of just one kilo per vine and the ten-month long gentle aging process in stainless steel vats, and partly in French 500-litre tonneaux, all result in a wine of unique characteristics.
