Nose

Ruby in color with purple hues, the aroma reminds of mature cherries, almonds and viola.

Palate

On the palate the wine is structured and elegant, fruity with a fresh note and well-balanced.

Growing Conditions

The picturesque municipality of Caldaro, above the famous lake, are the setting for the pergola and guyot trained Vernatsch/Schiava grapes. At an altitude of 300- 450 Warm, sandy, gravel and morainic soils, provide the perfect growing conditions for these grapes.

Harvest

Harvesting of the Vernatsch/Schiava grapes takes place at the ideal stage of maturity in late September to mid-October. From the handpicked and selected grapes, a yield of 65 hectoliters of wine per hectare is produced.

Winemaking

The Vernatsch/Schiava grapes are gently crushed and destemmed and then fermented at a constant temperature of 22°.

Aging

The wine is subsequently added in large wooden barrels.

Food Pairing

The NOVIS Kalterersee is an excellent accompaniment to the traditional South Tyrolean and light dishes, meat, grilled fish and is also a great drop to share with good company.
