The Sauvignon Rheinhessen Trocken from Dr Fischer - Hofstatter represents an excellent choice for enthusiasts of distinctive and aromatic white wines. This wine hails from the famous Rheinhessen region in Germany, renowned for producing high-quality wines thanks to its temperate climate and fertile soils.

The Sauvignon Rheinhessen Trocken stands out for its lively and complex aromatic profile. On the nose, one can perceive intense notes of tropical fruit like passion fruit, citrus accents, and herbaceous nuances reminiscent of green pepper and arugula. This olfactory complexity is typically associated with the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety, which is cultivated with great care by Dr Fischer's winery.

On the palate, the wine is fresh and well-balanced. The acidity is lively yet harmonious, supporting the structure well and leading to a long and pleasantly persistent finish. The fruity and herbaceous sensations anticipated by the aroma are also present on the palate, making each sip rich and memorable.

The Sauvignon Rheinhessen Trocken is particularly suitable for pairing with fish dishes, seafood, and Asian cuisine, accentuating the freshness and intense flavors of these foods. It is also an excellent companion for a summer evening or as a refreshing aperitif.

Served chilled, this wine is capable of offering a refined and stimulating tasting experience, reflecting the unique terroir from which it originates and the skill of the winemakers at Dr Fischer - Hofstatter.
The winery

Tenuta J. Hofstätter – Winery in Alto Adige (Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol)

Discover the story and wines of Tenuta J. Hofstätter.

Family-owned winery based in Termeno (South Tyrol), known for its emphasis on the origin of its wines and for its line of cru labeled "Vigna".
Region: Alto Adige (Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol)
Country: Italia
Founded: 1907
Grapes: Gewürztraminer, Pinot Nero, Pinot Bianco, Lagrein, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Müller-Thurgau, Riesling, Schiava (Vernatsch)
A pioneer in Alto Adige in using the designation "Vigna" to denote single-vineyard wines. Historic premises in the centre of Termeno, flanked by a winemaking tower added during renovation and expansion works. Vineyards spread across multiple microclimates: Bassa Atesina, high-altitude sites in Trentino, and parcels in the Mosel/Saar for Riesling. A strong tradition in Gewürztraminer and Pinot Noir, complemented by a wide range of the region's typical white and red varieties. The offer also includes dealcoholized wines from the 'Zero' line.
Winery history
The winery has family origins: Josef and Maria Hofstätter began production in Termeno, and over the course of the 20th century management passed to family members and key figures such as Konrad Oberhofer. In the 1950s the winery was among the first in the area to bottle its own wine and to promote wines of defined origin. In the following decades the estate grew through marriages between winemaking families, acquisitions of farmsteads and vineyards, and extensive modernization from the 1990s under the leadership of Martin Foradori Hofstätter.
Production philosophy
The approach is centered on origin: vinifying the grapes separately to convey the character of each vineyard. The "Vigna" classification encapsulates the commitment to zoning and the expression of terroir, together with an openness to winemaking innovation.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards extend along both banks of the Valle dell'Adige in the Bassa Atesina. The estate also cultivates plots in Trentino and has projects and vineyards in the Mosel/Saar region of Germany for Riesling.
Awards and recognitions
Some of the winery's wines and its crus have received recognition and ratings from the specialist press.
