Description

Description:
This lusciously sweet "passito" is rich and golden in colour with a concentrated aroma reminiscent of lychees and other tropical fruits and spices (ginger, cinnamon and cloves); opulent on the palate, ambrosial with mouth-cleansing acidity to balance the opulent sweetness and a monumental finish.

Grape variety:
Petit Manseng - South Tyrol IGT Vigneti delle Dolomiti Bianco

Production area:
Selected site at an average altitude of 450 metres a.s.l. Soils are dry, medium-rich, morainal with a mixture of sand and gravel.

Vinification:
The fully ripe and sapid grapes are picked shortly before the beginning of the winter. The grapes are then fed by hand into the press and the juice gently squeezed out. After being allowed to decant naturally, the clear juice is left to ferment for several months at around 16° C. The wine is subsequently bottled carefully, a year after the harvest.

Food pairing:
Drink this Passito with foie-gras, puddings and blue-veined cheeses.

Serving temperature:
10°C.

Ageing potential:
10 years.

Residual sugar:
approx. 210 - 220 g/lt.

375 ml - 37,5 cl - 0,375 lt.

Allergens:

Colterenzio Winery
Founded in 1960, the Colterenzio winery is one of the youngest winegrowers’ cooperative in Alto Adige. In 1960, 28 winegrowers left the historical Cornaiano winery based in the same little village to found their own winery – and named it after the hamlet they came from: Schreckbichl in German, Colterenzio in Italian. These winegrowers can be considered rebels but at the same time pioneers for right after the foundation of their own winery they were setting the course towards quality.
Today, 300 winegrowers together with the people working at Colterenzio continued this path.
The winegrowers grow their grapes on a total of 300 hectares; the vineyards are located in one of the best wine growing areas of Alto Adige, on altitudes from 230 to 650 meters. 12 different varieties are cultivated. 35% of the wines at Colterenzio are red, 65% are white. The Colterenzio winery cares about the environment, not only in the vineyards, but also in the cellar. In the vineyard this means sustainable viticulture and handpicked grapes. In the winery itself most of the electric energy used in the winery is supplied by a photovoltaic installation, 100% of the electric power is certified green and 70% of hot water requirements is provided by solar panels and a heat recovery system.
