In 1960, 26 wine growers from Colterenzio founded their cooperative near Appiano, thus making themselves independent of the wine merchants who at the time outlined the prices. Luis Raifer set fire to the powders and in 1979 joined the cooperative as director. First of all, in his farm “Lafòa”, a hill kissed by the sun, he replaced the vines of Schiava with those of Cabernet Sauvignon and later with Sauvignon Blanc. It introduced a lower harvest quality standard, compared to fine grapes, for excellent wines. To date, there are 300 winemakers: members of the Colterenzio winery. It gathers with a classic line of wines produced with the typical South Tyrolean varieties.
The wine we tasted is produced from yellow muscat grapes. It stands out for its incredible freshness but also for its spicy aroma, scented notes and hints of nutmeg.
Vinified and left to mature in steel tanks only in order to preserve its fragrance and immediacy.
Excellent wine as an aperitif but also with spicy or fish dishes. Wanting also with herbal cheeses.
