Castel Juval Müller Thurgau Schlossleiten 2024 - 13,5% vol. Unterortl Castel Juval Winery

Description: 
The wine convinces with a playfully complex, fruity style such as pear, citrus and slightly nutmeg, in the mouth it is balanced mineral, finely spicy and persistent, - suitable for light meals as well as fish and tolerates two years of bottle ageing well. 

Grape variety: 
Müller Thurgau - South Tyrol Val Venosta DOC 

Production area: 
The grapes grow in the Juval vineyard Schlossleiten between 750-850 m above sea level.

The strong temperature fluctuations during the ripening period allow spicy aromas to develop and preserve a fine acidity in the berries.

Food pairing: 
Excellent with fine fish dishes, risotto, pasta dishes.

10 - 12°C. 

Ageing potential: 
more than 3 years.

Castel Juval Unterortl Winery 
An estate winery also lives from strong personalities. The Castel Juval Unterortl Estate Winery in Castelbello at the entrance to the Val Senales has three at the same time: the king of mountain climbing, Reinhold Messner, is the owner, and Gisela and Martin Aurich run it as tenants. Three heads for one estate winery, so to speak. While Reinhold Messner most likely needs no further introduction, in the context of his estate winery it is worthwhile to take a closer look at the Aurichs. They have dedicated themselves to wine and distilled spirits since 1992. In the Castel Juval Unterortl Estate Winery, they are responsible for 30,000 bottles that are produced here year after year: Müller Thurgau, Riesling, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Noir, whose very particular character is passionately looked after by the Aurichs. As their credo goes, in the end it should be possible to taste the characteristics of the grape variety, the soil, and the microclimate.
