Conti Thun - Contessa Lene | Alto Adige Südtirol DOC Sauvignon Blanc

White wine | Italy, ALTO ADIGE - SUD TIROL | 2023
We see a bright, pale straw-yellow color in the glass. The nose is expressive and refined, with elderflower and exotic fruit, complemented by subtle gooseberry and balsamic herbal notes. The freshness and savory character are perfectly balanced, giving this white wine a full structure, combined with velvety elegance and delicate finesse. The fruit and freshness provide a long finish.

Vinification
The vineyard is located on a steep slope, near Terlano, at an altitude of 400 meters. This region is ideal for Sauvignon Blanc, with plenty of sunshine and large temperature differences between day and night. The harvest is done by hand, and only the best, ripest grapes are selected. After pressing and fermentation, the wine matures for 8 months in stainless steel tanks, followed by 6 months of bottle aging.
