Curiosity

The Eisack river is the main tributary of the Etsch (Adige) and its river valley is called the Eisacktal. It rises at the Brenner and runs into the Etsch at Bozen. Ancient authors called the river "Isarcus" or "Isargus". Only Strabo called it "Atagis" instead of Isarcus.

Food Pairing

Ideal pairings include shrimp, lobster, liver pâté, soft cheeses, desserts, or just as an aperitif. Also excellent with Sushi!

Vintage 2023

Great challenges, great wines - challenging weather brings out powerful reds and fruity whites. The 2023 vintage seems to corroborate one of Alto Adige’s wine legends: years of great challenges are years of great wines. Out in the vineyards, 2023 was a year of major challenges, but winemakers expect strong reds with rich fruit flavors and intense colors as well as fresh and even fruitier whites than past vintages.(Cons.
