Mountain wines for the holiday table
Alto Adige, a land of mountains and centuries-old winemaking traditions, offers a wide range of fine wines. During the Christmas holidays, Alto Adige wines find perfect pairings with traditional dishes.
A Gewürztraminer pairs beautifully with smoked fish appetizers or crostini with liver pâté, thanks to its aromatic intensity. For first courses such as dumplings in broth or ravioli filled with meat, the light Pinot Noir or Schiava are ideal. The full-bodied and structured Lagrein enhances the flavor of roasts or game. Finally, a Moscato Rosa passito wine closes with a flourish, pairing wonderfully with spicy desserts such as Zelten or Christmas biscuits.
