Alto Adige Pinot Blanc DOC 'Quintessenz' 2019 (750 ml.) - Cantina di Caldaro Kaltern
Pinot Blanc 'Quintessenz' by Kellerei Kaltern is a refined and elegant wine. It is part of the Kaltern high-end line, one of the most important and representative realities of the South Tyrolean territory. The vines have an average age of about 15 years and are grown in the St. Nikolaus area between 550 and 600 meters above sea level. It ages in wood for a period of about 10 months, before being bottled. Refinement of aromas, never excessive and exuberant, but always very harmonious and subtle. Perfect balance between fruit and freshness. The sip is soft and creamy, of great expressive harmony, with a fruit with refined tones and a balanced freshness. Pleasantly savory finish. Excellent accompaniment to fish dishes, white meats, risottos.

Kellerei Kaltern is a historic cooperative that represents the entire municipality and its wine producers. It is the mouthpiece of the wines that are born near Lake Caldaro and, in particular, of the Kalterersee (Schiava) variety. These are typical bottles produced by a large community with sensitivity, passion and competence: fine, complex and wonderfully simple to love. The winery, which has its roots in the distant 1900s, took more than a century to become what it is now and what it represents: professionalism, passion, sense of belonging, experience and high quality standards. Today it is one of the most important realities in South Tyrol and the wine community of Caldaro itself, the best known and most loved in the region, is proud of its fame. In this small patch of land, wine is the great protagonist of the life of the community: it has given and still gives work, fills the inhabitants and farmers with pride and is a full-time professional commitment for many inhabitants, pursued with great passion in many areas. different, whether in the vineyards, in the cellar, in the gastronomy or in the trade.
The Kaltern Winery is a large family that has 650 winegrowing members, most of whom own less than one hectare of land (on average 0.7 hectares, which correspond to a football field), for a total of 450 hectares. They are winemakers out of passion and love, who earn their living exercising other professions and delight in the art of winemaking during their free time. Part of Kaltern's striking charm certainly comes from this.
Cantina Kaltern wines come from the oldest DOC area of South Tyrol and mature in the best soils surrounding Lake Caldaro. They are the result of great sensitivity, passion, and the use of cutting-edge techniques. There are three quality lines: Quintessenz - The most important line, born from the best vineyards on the property.
