Südtirol - Alto Adige Valle Isarco DOC Kerner 2021 Villscheider

Kerner is a white wine from the South Tyrolean Villscheider winery owned by the Hilpold family, whose wines can be tasted on the farm, the traditional restaurant. The name "Villscheider" has Ladin etymological roots and means "mowing the field with a scythe". The company is located in the province of Bressanone, behind the moraine hills, in the Isarco Valley, where the vines grow on steep slopes facing south and east at an altitude of 700 m. The stony soil is poor in limestone, thin and permeable and produces wines with very interesting characteristics.

The grapes grow at an altitude of 700 meters above sea level and are harvested in the second half of October. The vinification takes place in steel, as well as the aging of 6 months.

In the glass the wine appears straw yellow in color. On the nose there are hints of apricot, peach and elderflower. The sip is sweet, fresh and aromatic.

Excellent as an aperitif, it goes very well with light first courses, grilled vegetables, salads, grilled fish and fresh to semi-aged cheeses.
