TASTING NOTES
The color is intense straw yellow with golden reflections. The nose is aromatic, with hints of rose, lychee, grapefruit, lime, light notes of orange peel, cloves and cinnamon. The taste is full, complex, soft, with a good freshness. The 2021 harvest was characterized by a slight delay in the harvest, due to an intense cold in spring, which delayed flowering, a very dry June and an extremely cool and rainy July. By mid-August the weather stabilized and allowed the full ripening of the bunches which turned out to be a little smaller than normal. The quality of the fruit turned out to be excellent, with an ideal balance between the acidity values, slightly higher this year, and the sugar levels. The young white wines 2021 from South Tyrol are very fruity, pleasantly fresh, with a lively structure and an elegant sensation on the palate.

Guido Folonari has always been in love with Südtirol, its wines, vineyards and landscapes. Right there in South Tyrol he has decided to realize his last winemaking dream called Winzerberg (Winegrowers' Mountain). Folonari has selected five small winemakers, owners of as many vineyard, with totally different “terroirs”. South Tyrol is a small jewel of the Italian wine scene, with a truly unique pedoclimatic environment, where wines of extreme elegance and complexity are born. The love for the care of the vineyard and the skillful hand of Stephan Filippi, a South Tyrolean winemaker with a great personality, have given life to seven wines that reflect the character and origin of the territory.
