Descrizione

Kerner Alto Adige DOC Luxs - Niklas is born in the heart of Alto Adige, a land where the mountains meet a favorable microclimate that enhances the characteristics of this hybrid grape variety. This white wine embodies the typical freshness of Kerner, a cross between Riesling and Schiava, carefully cultivated on mineral-rich soils. The aging method, often in steel, preserves its lively structure and an intense yet elegant aromatic profile. On the nose, delicate notes of wildflowers, green apple, and a light spicy hint emerge, anticipating a balanced sip, endowed with beautiful acidity and a persistence that invites another tasting. Perfect to accompany fish dishes, light appetizers, and fresh cheeses, Kerner Luxs represents a fresh expression of the Alto Adige territory, capable of communicating lightness and character with equal harmony.

An experience that restores the essence of a unique terroir, making every glass a discovery of freshness and authenticity.
