Vigna Oberkerschbaum Sauvignon Tenuta Hofstätter 2020

The Sauvingnon Vigna Oberkersch¬baum by Hofstätter is produced with selected grapes from one of the most famous crus for the production of great South Tyrolean whites. Here Sauvignon Blanc, thanks to the altitude between 750 and 800 m above sea level, the particular microclimate and the southern exposure of the vineyards, reaches its maximum expression giving us an extraordinarily elegant and complex wine. With a beautiful intense straw yellow color with greenish nuances, in the nose it develops a rich and composite bouquet with notes of citrus, grapefruit and bergamot, in addition to typical vegetable and mineral hints of flint and wild herbs. On the palate it is savory and mineral, pleasantly savory, complex and balanced. A wine with a long and persistent finish, the Sauvingnon Vigna Oberkersch-baum by Hofstätter is perfect to drink in combination with shellfish, seafood, stewed fish and spicy dishes.
