Descrizione

Citrus peel, elderflower and a herbaceous thread reminiscent of tomato leaf, all supported by a mineral note that lends clarity. On the palate the wine shows a lean but well-defined profile, with lively acidity and a sapidity that cleanses the mouth; the body is medium, the substance balanced and the delicacy of the sensations makes the sip elegant without being thin. The finish is persistent and recalls the initial aromas with a pleasant tension.

Measured, easy-drinking style, ideal for those seeking an expressive but not overpowering Sauvignon: it pairs naturally with light fish dishes, shellfish, sushi and complex salads where herbs and citrus predominate, but it also stands up to fresh cheeses. It is recommended to serve it cool, around 8–10°C, in a large glass to enhance its aromas; best enjoyed young but it retains a modest capacity to evolve over a few years.

Winery history

The winery has its roots in Caldaro on the Strada del Vino. According to the timeline published by the winery, its beginnings date back to 1967. The first official winemaker joined in the 1990s, and in 1999 ownership passed to the Roner family. In recent decades the winery has undergone several renovation projects, and it is currently led by Eva Kaneppele, a representative of the newest generation.

Production philosophy

The winery emphasizes the importance of terroir and careful vineyard management: hand harvesting, rigorous grape selection, and ongoing collaboration with local growers. Production is offered across several ranges, from everyday wines to selected bottlings and reserves, with a focus on sustainability and respect for nature.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located in the vicinity of Lago di Caldaro, in the heart of Alto Adige/Trentino-Alto Adige, along the Strada del Vino n.1. The production areas include morainic slopes and hills situated at approximately 320–450 metres above sea level, with the sandy and gravelly soils typical of the lake basin.
