The Alto Adige DOC Kerner produced by Cortaccia winery is an exceptional example of the winemaking art from this renowned Italian region. This white wine is made exclusively from Kerner grapes, a variety that finds ideal conditions in the Alto Adige terroir to express all its aromatic qualities.

Visually, Cortaccia's Kerner presents a bright straw-yellow color with greenish reflections that emphasize its freshness. The nose reveals an intriguing and complex bouquet, where notes of white-fleshed fruits such as peach and pear stand out, enriched by nuances of aromatic herbs and a light touch of nutmeg.

On the palate, the first impression is of a lively acidity, balanced by a medium-bodied structure that envelops the palate. The flavors are consistent with the aromas perceived on the nose, with an addition of slight citrus hints leading to a long and pleasantly fresh finish.

Ideal as an aperitif, the Cortaccia Alto Adige DOC Kerner pairs beautifully with seafood dishes, particularly those based on shellfish. It is also the perfect match for light appetizers and vegetarian dishes enhanced by fresh herbs.

Whether for a connoisseur or a newcomer to the wine world, this wine represents an excellent choice for discovering the elegance and refinement of Alto Adige white wines. Cortaccia winery, with its longstanding winemaking tradition, ensures consistent quality and a deep expression of the territory.
