The Cabernet Sauvignon Alto Adige DOC produced by Hofstatter is a striking demonstration of the oenological possibilities this geographical area has to offer. Characterized by an ideal climate benefiting from the influence of the Alps and the tempered contributions of the Mediterranean, Hofstatter's Cabernet Sauvignon expresses remarkable complexity and a unique structure.

In the production of this wine, Hofstatter winery follows rigorous protocols starting with the careful selection of grapes from vineyards primarily located in the higher areas of the region. These vineyards have mineral-rich soil and a unique microclimate that emphasizes optimal berry maturation.

Visually, the wine presents an intense and brilliant red color, indicating good concentration. On the nose, intense and varied aromas of forest fruits, such as currants and blackberries, are enriched by hints of dark spices and a slight touch of vanilla, a result of aging in barriques. This also provides a well-balanced and velvety tannic structure in the mouth.

On the palate, Hofstatter's Cabernet Sauvignon is robust yet extremely harmonious; the acidity is well integrated and supports a long-lasting taste experience that ends with a pleasant sensation of ripe fruit and spices.

This wine is ideal for pairing with red meat dishes, grilled preparations, or rich dishes such as stews and braised meats. With its aging potential, the Cabernet Sauvignon Alto Adige DOC by Hofstatter can also be cellared for a few years, allowing it to evolve and develop new complexities.

A sublime example of how Cabernet Sauvignon can express its best in the alpine terroir, this wine is certainly destined to captivate lovers of structured and aromatically complex wines.
