Descrizione

Sauvignon Alto Adige DOC Indra - Girlan represents a perfect balance between elegance and freshness, the result of vineyards located in the heart of Alto Adige, one of the most prestigious regions for this aromatic variety. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes, grown on mineral-rich soils and benefiting from an ideal microclimate, give this wine a complex and vibrant character.

The winemaking process aims to intensely preserve the varietal typicity, with a subsequent short aging in steel that keeps intact the aromas of aromatic herbs, citrus, and tropical fruit. On the nose, it expresses clear notes of tomato leaf, green pepper, and sage, followed by a fresh, savory, and structured sip, capable of surprising with its pleasant persistence.

Light and versatile, Indra di Girlan pairs wonderfully with fish dishes, shellfish, and spring vegetables, enhancing every bite with its vigorous and refined spirit.

Winery history

Founded in 1923 by an initial group of growers who chose an ancient 16th-century farmhouse in Cornaiano, the winery has evolved into a cooperative bringing together about 200 families. The ancient underground cellars and historic buildings coexist with modern facilities: harvesting and winemaking are managed with care for each individual vineyard to highlight local specificities.

Production philosophy

The winery aims to showcase historic local varieties and to interpret international varieties in a way that reflects the local terroir. Sustainability is central: targeted agronomic practices, reduced use of mineral fertilizers, energy-saving measures and the introduction of lighter bottles to reduce emissions.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards are located mainly in the Oltradige and the Bassa Atesina, on morainic and porphyric soils. Some crus and sites mentioned include Gschleier, Plattenriegl, Montiggl and Mazon, known for their diversity of exposure and soil.

Awards and recognitions

The winery and individual wines have received national and international recognition: for example, the Trattmann Pinot Noir Riserva has been listed among wines awarded "3 Bicchieri" by Gambero Rosso for consecutive years; the Vigna Ganger Pinot Noir Riserva has received very high scores from Wine Advocate; the Gschleier Alte Reben Vernatsch has been highlighted by Decanter among notable wines.
