Description

Description:
The elegant Vigna RACHTL Sauvignon Blanc Riserva of the Selection VIGNA label at first presents itself with restraint before revealing its complex potential in the glass. The initial minerally aromatic structure comprising flint, graphite and slate is gradually overlayered with fruity notes of dry hay and exotic fruit. This delicate and harmonious wine, with its bright straw yellow color with greenish reflexes, pampers the palate with a clean, fresh acidity and succulently salty taste and has a persistent finish.

Grape variety:
Sauvignon Blanc - South Tyrol DOC Riserva

Production area:
The vineyard is located at an elevation of 1,935 – 2,066 feet overlooking Valle di Tires to the south of Aica di Fiè. The steep slope with its southern exposure provides protection from the northerlies. The topsoil comprises moderately silty sand with high salt levels and low humus content. A striking feature of the site is the presence of gray porphyry, which is unique to this area, The deeper soil horizons are dominated by sandy limestone rock flour that is a product of erosion of the porous dolomite rock.

Vinification:
The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are harvested at full maturity, when the acidity levels are still remarkably high. After a maceration period lasting eight to twelve hours, the berries are gently pressed. For alcoholic fermentation, 25% of the must is placed in new tonneaux barrels and 75% in big wooden barrels, where the young wine remains for almost a year. This process gives the RACHTL Sauvignon Blanc Riserva its smoothness and structure. To maintain the minerality of the wine, care is taken to avoid malolactic fermentation during this period. The assemblage then spends six months in a stainless steel tank for natural clarification. Finally, the wine is allowed to mature for a further twelve months in the bottle.

Food pairing:
Seafood, crustaceans and fish, pork and poultry, rice dishes.

Serving temperature:
10 - 12°C.

Ageing potential:
more than 10 years.

Bottle size:
750 ml - 75 cl - 0,75 lt.

Allergens:
wine can contain sulphites.
