Advice to enjoy this wine at its best.

Let’s talk about Muller Thurgau Alto Adige DOC - Colterenzio

More questions

The Müller Thurgau berries, carefully selected during the harvest, come from the Oltradige vineyards. Vinification is carried out in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, with maturation always in steel in order to preserve immediacy and fragrance.

Appears to the eye of an intense straw yellow color; on the nose there are hints of aromatic herbs mixed with floral and fruity aromas, among which nuances of wildflowers, pear, apricot and a pinch of nutmeg stand out. In the mouth the sip is perceived fresh and sapid, very pleasant and well balanced, with a perfect closure on the fruit.

A fine and intense white, perfect as an aperitif or in combination with lightly spiced seafood dishes or with roasted fish. The combination with the typical dishes of oriental cuisine is excellent.

The story
Founded as a growers' cooperative in the Colterenzio/Schreckbichl area, the winery was established in 1960 by a group of local producers. In the years that followed, figures such as Luis Raifer drove a significant improvement in quality, initiating experiments on pilot vineyards that helped define the cooperative's identity and flagship selections.
Production philosophy
Teamwork among partners, careful vineyard selection and hand harvesting, reduced yields for premium selections, and a quality-focused approach. In recent years there has also been a clear commitment to sustainable practices and energy efficiency in the winery.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards are located around Colterenzio/Cornaiano/Appiano and nearby areas, at altitudes of approximately 230–650 metres; partly morainic soils and the typical Alto Adige microclimates favour fresh, well-structured white wines.
Awards and recognition
Among its principal accolades: the Sauvignon Riserva Gran Lafóa was awarded the 'Tre Bicchieri' and named 'Bianco dell'Anno' in the Vini d'Italia guide.
