Pinot Grigio Peter Zemmer
€14.90
Grapes: Pinot Grigio – Alto Adige DOC
Origin: The Pinot Grigio is a selection of the best vineyards of the valley floor
and steep slopes near the vineyard estate. It flourishes under outstanding
climatic conditions on calcareous gravels from moraine sediments on the hills and
sandy alluvial soils in the valley bottom. The poor yield per hectare and the
particular terroir are responsible for the outstanding quality of the wine. The
fascinating interplay between tradition and innovation, man and the
surroundings, sense and sensuality finds expression in the passion and sensitivity
with which Peter Zemmer brings this wine to life.
Yield per hectare: 70 hl.
Vinification: After the grapes arrive, they are gently pressed and clarified
through the natural settling of sediments. The alcoholic fermentation is carried
out with pure strains of yeast at a controlled temperature of 18 °C (64 °F) in
stainless steel tanks. After several months of ripening on the yeast this elegant
wine achieves its perfection.
Characteristic properties: The rich aroma as well as the excellent acidity make
this wine hard and rich.
