Descrizione

Alto Adige Chardonnay from Kaltern is an extremely fragrant and fresh white wine that goes well with everything.

It comes from grapes from South Tyrolean vines, grown at about 400 m a.s.l., aged for four months in steel on the fine lees.

At the sight it has a beautiful bright straw yellow color. On the nose, floral aromas of white flowers rise, and then vary on fruity aromas that refer to the Williams pear. In the mouth it is particularly fragrant and full-bodied, with a pleasant minerality. Good length.

Perfect with seafood first courses; we recommend pairing with linguine with mussels.

Winery history

The winery traces its roots to the early 20th century: the company’s history began with cooperatives and small local wineries founded around 1900 and, through mergers over the course of the 20th century and in 2016, became the present-day Cantina Kaltern, which brings together hundreds of members and manages the vineyards around the lake.

Production philosophy

Collective production and connection to the territory: the cooperative values the work of its members, seeks quality and typicity linked to the lake's microclimate and the varying exposures of the vineyards, and focuses on sustainability in managing the vineyard landscape.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards are spread around Lago di Caldaro, on alternating porphyritic and calcareous soils, with varied exposures and altitudes ranging from approximately 200 to 850 meters. An Alpine–Mediterranean influenced climate favors both aromatic white varieties and elegant reds.

Awards and recognitions

Awarded and reviewed wines by national and international guides and competitions.
